I'm not an expert, but I believe there are tags that can be added to text to make it reflowable. As far as I know, there is no such stuff for tables, equations, code, line drawings,... So even if the text tags have been added, reflow doesn't work with technical documents with the above elements. It really only works for paragraphs of text with the odd image embedded between them (and as dwig implies, only if the tags have been added).
