Tim Allison created TIKA-1374: --------------------------------- Summary: Need to add code to look for OS-specific keys for embedded files within PDFs Key: TIKA-1374 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1374 Project: Tika Issue Type: Improvement Components: parser Reporter: Tim Allison Assignee: Tim Allison Priority: Minor Fix For: 1.6
Embedded files in PDFs can be found by the general all purpose key we currently use via PDFBox: "EF/F". However, embedded documents can also be stored under OS specific keys: "EF/DOS", "EF/Mac" and "EF/Unix". [~lehmi] confirmed on the PDFBox users [list|http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/pdfbox-users/201407.mbox/%3c1572548479.2099779.1406198761475.open-xchange@patina.store%3e] that we might be missing embedded documents if we're not trying the OS specific keys as well. As Andreas points out, according to the spec the OS specific keys shouldn't be used any more, but I think we should support extraction for them. My proposal is to pull all documents that are available by any of the four keys (well, via getEmbeddedFile<OS>() in PDFBox). The code fix is trivial, and I'll try to commit it today. However, it will take me a bit of time to generate a test file that stores files under the OS specific keys. So, if anyone has an ASF-friendly file available or wants to take the task of generating one, please do. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
