Hi Victor Thanks.
In the past I have used the Inso OutsideIn filters and found them very good; however I'd like to come up with a pure Java solution, so if there is a Java equivalent to the Inso filters I be grateful for any details. Failing that, I thought that I'd go for individual parsers initially using the file extensions to select the correct parser but in the future adding a file type recogniser for files without extensions. Hence my request for anyone knowing of good parsers particularly for the most common formats. That being said, has anyone come across a Powerpoint parser?
