If you just need the text from the document, try the ExtractorFactory
============================
import java.io.File;
import org.apache.poi.extractor.ExtractorFactory;
import org.apache.poi.POITextExtractor;
public class GetTextExample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
File inputFile = new File("c:\\test\\docs\\test.docx");
POITextExtractor extractor =
ExtractorFactory.createExtractor(inputFile);
System.out.println("Word Document Text: ");
System.out.println("====================");
System.out.println(extractor.getText());
}
catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
