Trejkaz commented on TIKA-1358:
-------------------------------
And of course now iWork is using zip files [again? There is some confusion over
whether they were ever using zip files, because the Apple mail client
transparently zips package-based documents for transmission over email, so
maybe iWork never used zip files until now].
I think the new format is more or less the same as the previous format, just
with an outer zip shell on it.
> Add support for newer iWork file formats

> 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).
