[jira] [Commented] (TIKA-704) PDF and Outlook docs embedded in MS
Word documents not parsed
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-704?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13097212#comment-13097212 ]
Jukka Zitting commented on TIKA-704:
------------------------------------
See also revisions 1165230 and 1165259 for followup work.
Jeremy, I notice you didn't select the "Grant license to ASF for inclusion in ASF works (as per the Apache License ยง5)" when uploading the test documents. Was this on purpose, or is it OK if we include at least the testWithPdf.docx document as a test case in Tika?
The email attachment in testWithOutlook.docx contains a PDF under Yamaha copyright, so we probably can't use that in any case. It would be great if you could create an alternative test file without any external content that we could include in Tika.

> Currently there appear to be issues with embedded pdf's and outlook Msg files contained in MS Word documents. I'll attach a sample for each and my recursive parser (incase the problem lies in there).
> From what I see, when these embedded objects are parsed, they're initially identified as vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.oleObject in the metadata's Content-Type field. After a call to the RecurciveParsers super parse class the Content-Types update to the following:
> PDF's: application/vnd.ms-works
> .MSG: application/x-tika-msoffice
> The internal AutoDetectParser is unable to properly identify these PDF's and therfore does not call the PDFParser on them.
