[jira] [Created] (TIKA-1124) Nested documents not extracted if a PDF file is in the chain

Tim Allison created TIKA-1124:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Nested documents not extracted if a PDF file is in the chain
                 Key: TIKA-1124
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1124
             Project: Tika
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: general
    Affects Versions: 1.3
            Reporter: Tim Allison
            Priority: Minor


Tika 1.3 is not able to get attachments from the attached PDF.
The trunk is able to get attachments from the PDF.  However, if that PDF is then embedded in another document, the docs embedded in the PDF are not extracted.

I'm not sure of a solution, but I found two things that might help with the diagnosis:
1) If you modify the code in PDFParser so that it doesn't wrap the handler in a BodyContentHandler, everything works (in trunk).
2) If you modify BodyContentHandler to use my toy SimpleBodyMatchingContentHandler, the problem is also solved.

The cause may be in the MatchingContentHandler.
