Nick Burch commented on TIKA-1397:
----------------------------------
If the data stored in the file has a timezone on it, Tika will take account of
that, and it'll be stored+returned by Tika including Timezone information. If
it doesn't, it'll be stored + returned by Tika without any timezone information
When fetching the resulting keys from Tika, you get get them as a Java Date
object, which when output can be formatted into whatever timezone you like!
Alternately, fetch them as strings, and you'll get them back as the standard
ISO-8601 format, which you can then parse + handle + display however you like
> Can Tika make the metadata extraction of time stamps as timezone sensitive

> Currently, when Tika extract the metadata set from a file uploaded, the time
> stamps are set as UTC timezone. When a user from a specific TimeZone created
