Michael McCandless commented on TIKA-714: ----------------------------------------- OK I dug into this one a bit. First off, for doc/docx/pdf, I don't think there's any text to extract because there is just an embedded (PNG) image; I cannot copy/paste from the viewers. PPTX already works correctly. PPT works, but on scrutinizing the output from POI's SlideShowRecordDumper, I don't see any record that contains this text, and when I extract the PNG, it doesn't contain the text as embedded metadata either. I do see numerous embedded UnknownRecordPlaceholder records with type 1054, that seem to contain embedded Office XML data. So, I'm strongly suspecting that the reason why I can copy/paste out of the PPT file is only because I'm running Office 2007. Ie, I think that if I opened this with older Office that I would not be able to copy/paste text out (but, I can't verify for certain -- does anyone have an Office 2003 or older installation...?) So net/net I think this is already working as best it can (we get the text from PPTX). I'll commit the PPTX test case and mark this resolved. > Word art isn't extracted for various doc types > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: TIKA-714 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-714 > Project: Tika > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Michael McCandless > Assignee: Michael McCandless > Attachments: TIKA-714.patch, testWordArt.doc, testWordArt.docx, > testWordArt.pdf, testWordArt.ppt, testWordArt.pptx > > -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
