Description

File metadata and text can be extracted from many document, media, and archive formats through the Apache Tika desktop jar wrapper. Users install it to inspect local files, feed search indexes, or test parser output with optional OCR, audio, video, and EXIF helpers. Private documents, malformed files, parser bugs, temporary output, and large inputs need careful handling.
