Config Tika Server

[Nilton Monteiro <al...@hotmail.com>]

Hello, I would like to know if its possible to extract the position of the texts, tables, graphs, and pages in PPT files.
I triied Tika-python to parse the ppt file, but I did not find options to get these informations.
I understand that I need to config tika server to obtain that. Could you please hep me with that?

Thanks,
Nilton

I’ve done two projects around this.   

https://github.com/o19s/powerpoint-discovery-demo <https://github.com/o19s/powerpoint-discovery-demo> demonstrates hocr + converting PPT’s to static images for web friendlier (sorta!) highlighting in context.

https://github.com/o19s/pdf-discovery-demo/ <https://github.com/o19s/pdf-discovery-demo/> is similar but newer, and does the same think for PDF’s, however we use pdf.js to render the PDF natively in the web.

We aren’t currently extracting position in any formats. I _think_ it is
straightforward to get coordinates from PDFs, but I’d have to look at the
ppt/x apis for location.

What, specifically, are you trying to accomplish?

Tesseract in hocr mode does extract coordinates if that’s of any use...
