Extract Embedded OLE Object Picture
Hi,
I've been trying to extract the image that is displayed in a Word
document on behalf of an embedded OLE object and am having problems.
Specifically, when embedding a chemical structure object (ISIS Draw) I
can see the Ole10Native data by using the POIFSReaderListener interface
to iterate the content of the POIFSFileSystem. However, when
enumerating the pictures using
HWPFDocument.getPicturesTable().getAllPictures(), I do not get the image
that it displayed on behalf of the OLE2 object.
So the question is - where does the image data get stored for embedded
objects, and how can I get hold of it ?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Luke
