             Summary: Add UnsupportedFormatException (extends TikaException)
                 Key: TIKA-2226
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2226
             Project: Tika
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Tim Allison


It would be handy to have an UnsupportedFormatException to handle those cases 
where one mime type covers different versions, and the relevant parser only 
handles a subset.

When possible, we should try to differentiate by mime type, however, if there 
really is one mime for different versions, or if we have to rely on the parser 
to determine format version (e.g. when magic isn't enough), parsers should 
throw this Exception.
