Research direction
Start by locating MarkItDown’s Excel worksheet processing entry point and checking how .xlsx files are converted. Trace where all worksheets are selected, then verify selection of a named subset such as Sheet1, Sheet2, and Sheet3. Done means the requested subset is processed while existing all-worksheet behavior remains intact.
