Michael McCandless commented on TIKA-714:
-----------------------------------------
OK I dug into this one a bit.
First off, for doc/docx/pdf, I don't think there's any text to extract
because there is just an embedded (PNG) image; I cannot copy/paste
from the viewers.
PPTX already works correctly.
PPT works, but on scrutinizing the output from POI's
SlideShowRecordDumper, I don't see any record that contains this text,
and when I extract the PNG, it doesn't contain the text as embedded
metadata either.
I do see numerous embedded UnknownRecordPlaceholder records with type
1054, that seem to contain embedded Office XML data. So, I'm strongly
suspecting that the reason why I can copy/paste out of the PPT file is
only because I'm running Office 2007. Ie, I think that if I opened
this with older Office that I would not be able to copy/paste text
out (but, I can't verify for certain -- does anyone have an Office
2003 or older installation...?)
So net/net I think this is already working as best it can (we get the
text from PPTX). I'll commit the PPTX test case and mark this
resolved.
