Can you let us know when it’s been successfully implemented?* You are welcome to subscribe to the JIRA ticket itself to receive updates. Just login to JIRA (uses the same acct as the DSpace wiki), and click "Watch" icon in the far right. You'll then get an email any time that ticket is updated. https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1140 Currently, we need to locate a volunteer developer to take on this work. So, I'm not sure how long it will take before it is implemented. > For PPT: > > -------- > > * POI 3.6: http://poi.apache.org/ > > * This software supports pptx as well > > *How would I integrate this with DSpace version 1.7.1 to tell DSpace to > use POI to filter .pptx files?* This PPT/PPTX Filter was first made available in DSpace 1.7.0. So, it should already work in your DSpace 1.7.1 installation. In your dspace.cfg you'd just want to make sure the following is setup (it should be by default): 'filter.plugins' setting: make sure this includes "PowerPoint Text Extractor", like displayed here: https://fisheye3.atlassian.com/browse/dspace/dspace/trunk/dspace/config/dspace.cfg?hb=true#to400 'FormatFilter' setting: make sure it *defines* a "PowerPoint Text Extractor, like displayed here: https://fisheye3.atlassian.com/browse/dspace/dspace/trunk/dspace/config/dspace.cfg?hb=true#to411 Finally, make sure the "PowerPoint Text Extractor" is setup to take in two input formats: "Microsoft Powerpoint, Microsoft Powerpoint XML", like displayed here: https://fisheye3.atlassian.com/browse/dspace/dspace/trunk/dspace/config/dspace.cfg?hb=true#to419 You'll then need to make sure your "Bitstream Format Registry" has a definition for "Microsoft Powerpoint XML" (pptx). Again, assuming you are running on an out-of-the-box 1.7.x, all of the above settings should be enabled by default. So, it should just work. - Tim ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
