Research direction

Start by tracing the converter selection path that produces “Could not convert stream to Markdown” for the reported .doc file. Check whether legacy .doc and .ppt inputs are supported, and identify the project’s existing conversion tests or format registry. Done means both requested file types convert successfully or their unsupported status is documented.
