[jira] [Closed] (TIKA-2589) Wrong page count detection (docx from dotm template)

["Tim Allison (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2589?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Tim Allison closed TIKA-2589.
-----------------------------
    Resolution: Not A Problem

Thank you for opening this issue.

MSWord calculates page counts dynamically and IMHO rarely stores the actual page count for a document, rather, it typically stores "1", which is incorrect.  If you add .zip to your file, unzip it, and look in docProps/app.xml, you'll see:

{noformat}
<Pages>1</Pages><Words>127171</Words><Characters>724878</Characters>
{noformat}

It is beyond the scope of Tika to calculate page counts dynamically, and so, we rely on whatever MSWord stored in the document.
