Excel Parsing Issues
--------------------
Key: TIKA-214
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-214
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Bug
Components: parser
Affects Versions: 0.3
Environment: Debian Etch / Debian Sid
Reporter: David Weekly
I ran a sample Excel 2003 file (which I will attempt to attach) that I made
through Tika 0.3 and the output didn't correctly identify the sheets, did not
include text from the first column of the first sheet, and did not include any
supplementary text (e.g. titles for charts, legends, etc.).
Specific issues with parsing xls.xls: (pardon the deliberately random names)
- "charttabyodawg" (a chart sheet) improperly labeled as the sheet for data
actually on Sheet1.
- "Sheet1" data is actually the data on Sheet2
- Sheet2 is not mentioned.
- Chart title for chart on "charttabyodawg" is "WhamPuff" and is not included
in the output.
- Chart title for inline chart on Sheet1 is "fizzlepuff" and is not included
in output.
- Y-axis for inline chart on Sheet1 is "whyaxis" and is not included in output.
- X-axis for inline chart on Sheet1 is "eksaxis" and is not included in output.
- Label for data in inline chart on Sheet1 is "YottaPuff" and is not included
in output.
Below is the output fromt Tika v0.3 when run on the attached XLS:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
<head>
