Experience on POI-HSLF + PPT?

[wangdong]

Hi guys, I am recently doing a project to convert a PPT into a text file. The program was doing really well, until I found a big problem. If a PPT contains a image in the header, then the POI-HSLF will thorwn an error. Has anyone come cross this problem before?

Any suggestion will be great.

Thank you

No, but you can just ignore it with a try/catch clause

Yes, I know. But I don't want to modify the source code of the POI. That will make it difficult to another people who is going to use the program.

Don't modify the POI, modify your program.

Sorry Dian. A pic in the header is not illegale, therefore I still need to extract the text from PPT. I cannot use try/catch block.
