feng ye reopened TIKA-2734:
---------------------------
Hi Tim,
applied the config setting you suggested but the results still contain the
footer contents somehow. Would you take a look? My code is copied below.
_if (tika.detect(bytes).contains("ms-excel")) {_
_System.out.println("turning off footers...");_
_ParseContext parseContext = new ParseContext();_
_OfficeParserConfig config = new OfficeParserConfig();_
_config.setIncludeHeadersAndFooters(false);_
_parseContext.set(OfficeParserConfig.class, config);_
_parseContext.set(Parser.class, tika.getParser());_
_}_
_String result = tika.parseToString(new ByteArrayInputStream(bytes));_
> Tika addes extra characters at the end of text in extracting from excel file

> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: handler
> Affects Versions: 1.18
> Reporter: feng ye
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: AIRPORTSOK.xls, extra_A_Page_P.png
>
>
> 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.
