WPS Compatibility

Capability Boundary

Use office-word, office-excel, or office-ppt for the artifact-specific workflow, and apply the WPS compatibility checks in this skill.

The built-in engine directly reads, creates, edits, checks, and renders .docx, .xlsx, and .pptx. It does not automate the WPS desktop UI and does not directly edit proprietary .wps, .et, or .dps files. Require a converted modern-Office working copy for those formats, and never report a WPS GUI action or export as completed unless it was actually performed and verified.

For an attached proprietary .wps, .et, or .dps capability-boundary request, first call read_files with the actual supplied workspace path and metadata_only:true. If no converted modern-Office copy exists, preserve the source and give the complete user-visible boundary result with the required converted copy or target-WPS action and review needs. End with the group protocol's required capability-boundary handback. Do not request file content from the proprietary binary, publish an empty output set, search for or run shell/process conversion, create a placeholder, ask another actor to retry the unsupported edit, or claim that anything was edited or saved.

Use create_pdf with source_type:"markdown" or source_type:"html" for a new PDF. For a PDF derived from an Office source, prefer editing the source file and regenerating the PDF. Exact WPS export behavior still requires review in the target WPS version.

Workflow

1. Confirm the artifact type, target WPS version/operating system when fidelity matters, and whether the deliverable is editable, print-ready, or PDF.
2. Work on a copy. Inspect the modern Office file with office_read, edit with edit_office, then call office_review with action:"check_and_render" and representative pages or slides.
3. Stabilize global settings before local formatting: page size, margins, orientation, fonts, theme/master, headers/footers, print area, and scaling.
4. Check Chinese-office conventions such as A4 layout, CJK font fallback, heading hierarchy, paragraph spacing, numbering, page breaks, tables, signatures, seals, and print pagination.
5. State every item that still requires manual confirmation in WPS, especially font substitution, formulas, charts, animations, embedded media, print layout, and PDF export.

Read the WPS compatibility reference when troubleshooting compatibility or preparing a print/PDF delivery checklist.

Handoff

Return the final and backup paths, compatibility checks performed, export status, and the exact WPS-version checks still outstanding. Do not present a rendered OfficeCLI preview as proof of identical WPS output.
