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 
> the file the showed time stamps is not Timezone sensitive. Is it possible to 
> make an improvement on Tika to be able to detect the timezone and then 
> display the time stamps timezone sensitive?
