Hi again Nick,
This problem appears to be Mac-specific, I have had more luck with a .doc file
created natively in Windows :-)
Now POIFSLister shows the ObjectPool and the item in it:
Root Entry -
SummaryInformation <(0x05)SummaryInformation> [412 / 0x19c]
DocumentSummaryInformation <(0x05)DocumentSummaryInformation> [280 / 0x118]
WordDocument [4142 / 0x102e]
1Table [2087 / 0x827]
ObjectPool -
_1432368106 -
CompObj <(0x01)CompObj> [76 / 0x4c]
ObjInfo <(0x03)ObjInfo> [6 / 0x6]
Ole10Native <(0x01)Ole10Native> [568849 / 0x8ae11]
EPRINT <(0x03)EPRINT> [5000 / 0x1388]
CompObj <(0x01)CompObj> [113 / 0x71]
Data [4096 / 0x1000]
Please can you point me to any resources which could help me to save the
embedded file to another file (i.e. read all the bytes and save them somewhere)?
Thanks,
- Chris
