[jira] [Updated] (TIKA-1880) Tag for number-columns-repeated not
correctly used in ODS documents
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1880?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Ryan Desmond updated TIKA-1880:
-------------------------------
Description:
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.
*
