[jira] [Issue Comment Edited] (TIKA-849) Identify and parse the
Apple iBooks format
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-849?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13191148#comment-13191148 ]

--------------------------------------------------------------
This patch identifies \*.ibooks files, and passes them through the ePub parser. Unfortunately, the content of the eBook is not extracted successfully. I'm not sure why this is, and feedback would be appreciated here. I think the content\*.xhtml files are actually HTML5 and it seems that the current XHTML-based parser is unable to parse them. A unit test and test file is included.

> With the release of iBooks Author 1.0, Apple have created a new eBook format very similar to ePub. Tika could be extended to identify and parse this new format, re-using the existing ePub code wherever possible.
> I have created an initial patch, which I will attach to this issue.
