> Key: DS-1140
> URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1140
> Project: DSpace
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: DSpace API
> Reporter: Tim Donohue
> Assignee: Richard Rodgers
> Labels: has-patch
> Fix For: 4.0
>
>
> The Microsoft Word Media Filter (org.dspace.app.mediafilter.WordFilter) uses
> outdated, obsolete third party software, specifically the "text-mining" tools
> at: http://code.google.com/p/text-mining/
> However, there are now better options out there, especially Apache POI.
> http://poi.apache.org/text-extraction.html
> Apache POI also has the benefit of being able to extract text from docx, xls,
> xlsx and even Publisher and Visio files.
> We may even be able to create a single "MSFilter" which can just extract doc,
> docx, ppt, pptx, xls, xlsx, etc. all using POI.
> Any volunteers to implement? Looks like we should be able to implement it
> similar to the current PPT Filter
> (org.dspace.app.mediafilter.PowerPointFilter) which already uses POI. See
> also DS-714.
