Run a basic local structural check for the PDF header, end marker, cross-reference pointer, page tree and parser readability. The browser checks core PDF markers and attempts to parse the document locally. This is a practical structural screen, not archival, accessibility, signature or legal-compliance certification. Compare the reported result with the file's visible properties and remember that a local inspection can only report information stored inside that file.

The browser reads and transforms the selected file in local memory without uploading it to MW SysArc. The browser checks core PDF markers and attempts to parse the document locally. This is a practical structural screen, not archival, accessibility, signature or legal-compliance certification. The selected file is processed in browser memory and is not uploaded to or stored by MW SysArc. Browser and operating-system limits still apply to large or damaged files.
