[jira] Commented: (TIKA-315) Tika appears to skip over an entire section of a Microsoft Word Document

Nick Burch commented on TIKA-315:
---------------------------------

I've just re-tested this with the latest SVN version of Tika, which uses POI 3.7 beta 1. I see references 1-8 in the tika output

Looks like the POI upgrade (which did include some HWPF fixes) has sorted this one now

> I saved this MS word file http://mingo.info-science.uiowa.edu/padmini/Papers/Biolink07.doc to my 32 bit Vista desktop. Then I tried both the command line -t option (output attached) and the GUI option. In either case, a large section of the word got lost.. From the bottom, you can scroll up and look for reference #4 which exists but references 1 - 3 don't.. You will also find that a page or so of the original document is missing! It is not clear what about this document caused this behavior. 
> I am trying to use tika to convert content from the web.
