Andreas Ebbert-Karroum commented on TIKA-1358:
----------------------------------------------
Looks like the iwa files are using [Google Protocol
Buffers|https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/overview?csw=1].
The github project
[iWorkFileFormat|https://github.com/obriensp/iWorkFileFormat] might help
getting the content out of them.
> Add support for newer iWork file formats

> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: parser
> Affects Versions: 1.5
> Reporter: Jelle Kastelein
> Labels: newbie
>
> IWork 2013 uses a revised file format which replaces the xml files that hold
> the content by .iwa files (a binary format). This file format is becoming
> increasingly relevant as more and more people are using apple products.
> However, it does not appear to work with the current IWorkPackageParser
> (tested with several of the example .pages files one can get from the
> iCloud).
