["Ross Johnson (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Ross Johnson commented on TIKA-3732:
------------------------------------

I took a quick look at the attached file in a hex editor and can confirm that it is indeed an RTF file despite the file extension being .DOC. It appears that Tika is detecting the type correctly.

> When executing Detector.detect(InputStream input, Metadata metadata) on a particular Word document, we're getting back a MediaType of RTF which has some downstream effects for us.
> Here's the relevant bit of code:
> TikaConfig config = TikaConfigFactory.getTikaConfig();
> Detector detector = config.getDetector();
> Metadata metadata = new Metadata();
> stream = TikaInputStream.get(fis = new FileInputStream(paths));
> metadata.add(TikaCoreProperties.RESOURCE_NAME_KEY, paths);
> *MediaType mediaType = detector.detect(stream, metadata);*
> Attaching the file that we came across this issue on.
