the word document
I just tried this code on my machine and I got the same result: ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException. However, reading from a Word document that was not written to by a Java program using the POI library works without any exceptions popping up. However, I keep seeing that I get two "end of line" characters whenever the program parses text from a word document. Is this a bug? Is it normal for there to be two end of line characters at the end of a doc file? It seems the file-information-block in this file is too small, also LibreOffice refuses to open this file, so I don't think we can do much here unless someone comes up with a way to safely read such broken files. |
