Alexander Klimetschek commented on JCR-1530:
--------------------------------------------
Hmm, IMHO it shouldn't be Jackrabbit's concern to handle such "details",
especially as text extraction from binary files is not a mandatory aspect of
the JCR API.
What about using Apache Tika? It aims to collect all the various extraction
libraries and self-built classes of the Apache project and to build a proper
re-usable framework. It recently pushed out its first release. Jukka, you
probably know more about it - is it already useful for Jackrabbit? You
mentioned in JCR-1290 that this could be a task for Jackrabbit 1.5.

> MsPowerPointTextExtractor does not extract from PPTs with € sign
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: JCR-1530
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-1530
> Project: Jackrabbit
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: jackrabbit-text-extractors
> Affects Versions: 1.4
> Reporter: Dirk Feufel
>
> The MsPowerPointTextExtractor class has a problem when reading PPTs when an €
> sign is contained. All text following that sign is ignored. Perhaps the POI
> PowerPointExtractor should be used instead of parsing the data by hand. As a
> side effect, this would simply the code. Extracting could be done as follows:
> public Reader extractText(InputStream stream, String type, String
> encoding) throws IOException {
> try {
> PowerPointExtractor extractor = new
> PowerPointExtractor(stream);
> return new StringReader(extractor.getText(true,true));
> } catch (RuntimeException e) {
> logger.warn("Failed to extract PowerPoint text
> content", e);
> return new StringReader("");
> } finally {
> try { stream.close(); } catch (IOException ignored) {}
> }
> }
