Hi Chris, Good to hear from you. I don't know if it would help at all, but I'm planning to add chart support to Tika soon(ish). I haven't yet opened the ticket on Tika's JIRA, so please open one there too if that would be of any use to you.

Our XSSFChart support is pretty limited right now, so I wouldn't be surprised if the extractor can't find the text on the chart (title, legend series names, axes labels, trending equations, text boxes). Could you please submit your file and test code as an enhancement request on bugzilla? [1] > I cannot easily try 3.16 beta1 as my code won't compile against it. It looks like we have documented 2 bugs with breaking changes since POI 3.15 final on the changelog [2]. Bug 57366 affects XWPF and bug 60331 affects OOXML (including XSSF). If we have introduced undocumented backwards compatibility breaking changes since 3.15, we'd like to know about them.

When I try to extract the text from the file using XSSFEventBasedExcelExtractor, it fails to find the chart text. I have dug around in the code and cannot see any calls which might do the trick. I am using POI 3.13 (but have also tried 3.14 and 3.15 with no luck). I cannot easily try 3.16 beta1 as my code won't compile against it. Can anyone advise?
