Tim Allison commented on TIKA-2734:
-----------------------------------

See: https://excel.tips.net/T002056_Header_and_Footer_Data_Codes.html for the 
codes.  They are both in the footer.  As with TIKA-2735, we could include 
something like an {{extractHeaderFooter}} parameter that would be applied to 
all doc/docx/ppt/pptx/xls/xlsx/xlsb...

What do we all think? 

> Tika addes extra characters at the end of text in extracting from excel file

> when extracting text from some relatively large excel files (9000 rows or 
> so), I found an extra string of "&A PAGE &P" is added to the end of the 
> resulting text, when Tika.parseToString is called. Is it a known issue? Is 
> there any configuration that I can do that will opt out from outputting these 
> extra characters?
> did not find a good answer over google. 
> the input excel spreadsheet is attached.
