[jira] [Created] (TIKA-1880) Tag for number-columns-repeated not
correctly used in ODS documents
Ryan Desmond created TIKA-1880:
----------------------------------
Summary: Tag for number-columns-repeated not correctly used in ODS documents
Key: TIKA-1880
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1880
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: parser
Affects Versions: 1.12
Reporter: Ryan Desmond
Priority: Minor
When the ODS writer has first written, it made the assumption that the the `number-columns-repeated` attribute for cells would only be used for blank cells. This is not the case with documents created by (at least) LibreOffice 4.4.7.2.
The note in the Tika source (OpenDocumentContentParser.java#L459):
```/* TODO: The following is not correct, the cell should be repeated not spanned!
* Code generates a HTML cell, spanning all repeated columns, to make the cell look correct.
* Problems may occur when both spanning and repeating is given, which is not allowed by spec.
* Cell spanning instead of repeating is not a problem, because OpenOffice uses it
* only for empty cells.
*/```
