Nick Burch commented on TIKA-408:
---------------------------------
I've just committed support for basic text extraction from Word 6 and Word 95
files to POI. Once the next POI release has happened, we can enable it with
something like:
try {
return new WordExtractor(poifsDir, fs);
} catch(OldWordFileFormatException e) {
return new Word6Extractor(poifsDir, fs);
}
(Text Mining doesn't seem to be being updated, and the main website has gone,
so using POI is likely to be better long term)
