------------------------
Summary: Removing comments from *.docx, *.pdf files
Key: TIKA-2900
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2900
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Wish
Components: app, example
Affects Versions: 1.21
Reporter: Md
Hello,
I do use Apache tika to extract text from mostly *.doc, *docx and *pdf files.
Sometimes there are comments in the file and tika is extracting them and adding
them at the end of the file. I am wondering to know is there a way to exclude
comments when it will be extracting text.
Here is the following code I am using
```
StringBuilder fileContent = new StringBuilder();
Parserparser=newAutoDetectParser();
ContentHandlerFactoryfactory=newBasicContentHandlerFactory(BasicContentHandlerFactory.HANDLER_TYPE.HTML,
-1);
//InputStream inputStream = new BufferedInputStream(new
FileInputStream(inputFileName));
RecursiveParserWrapperwrapper=newRecursiveParserWrapper(parser, factory);
Metadatametadata=newMetadata();
ParseContextparseContext=newParseContext();
OfficeParserConfigofficeParserConfig=newOfficeParserConfig();
officeParserConfig.setUseSAXDocxExtractor(true);
officeParserConfig.setIncludeDeletedContent(false);
officeParserConfig.setIncludeMoveFromContent(false);
officeParserConfig.setIncludeHeadersAndFooters(false);
parseContext.set(OfficeParserConfig.class, officeParserConfig);
wrapper.parse(inputStream, newDefaultHandler(), metadata, parseContext);
Stringcontents=metadata.get(RecursiveParserWrapper.TIKA_CONTENT);
```
