Andrew Jackson commented on TIKA-849: ------------------------------------- By the way, I notice you added a <code> <sub-class-of type="application/epub+zip" /> </code> to the iBooks identification information. I'm not sure this is correct, as I was under the impression that this was a strict conformance hierarchy. This would imply that every x-ibooks+zip also conforms to the epub+zip format, but this is not the case, because the new MIME type declaration means it violated the ePub standard. > Identify and parse the Apple iBooks format > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: TIKA-849 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-849 > Project: Tika > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: mime, parser > Affects Versions: 1.1 > Reporter: Andrew Jackson > Attachments: ibooks-support.patch > > > With the release of iBooks Author 1.0, Apple have created a new eBook format > very similar to ePub. Tika could be extended to identify and parse this new > format, re-using the existing ePub code wherever possible. > I have created an initial patch, which I will attach to this issue. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
