| Open P1 (3 partial: New Window as a separate OS window, language support, on-screen blending in the blend space) | 10 h |
| Open P2 (37: 12 missing — spread rotation, page transitions, vertical/RTL type, math, video/audio, split window, localization, flattener, placed-file layers — and 25 partial) | 110 h |

| Performance (incremental composition, GPU raster) and interchange hardening (IDML/PDF corpus) | 55 h |
