Hi David,

I have given a go using ES-2.0.2 and ES-ATT-3.0.4 and all types that are on my wish list worked fine 😄  
Only exception is the Image OCR text extraction that I didn't manage to get going.

According to this post ES-1.7.2 with ES-ATT-2.7.1 is capable of doing the Image OCR text extraction:

> Hi, this is Subhadip, Waheed's teammate. I was able to find a work around for ES 1.7.2 with elastic mapper attachments 2.7.1 as recommended. Our original installation was in /usr/local/share directory which falls under superuser access. Although, mapper-attachments, and hence Tika worked absolutely fine with it, tesseract didn't work. I tried to track the logs but I couldn't really find anything promising. So just for kicks, I tried the installation in the local user directory, and Voila! It …

However, there is some fiddling around that needs doing to get tika / tesseract working fine (adjusting permissions from what I understood) - it would be great to have a 'how to' on that. Also, from the looks of it I can't use tika / tesseract and ES-2.x due to security measures / limitations 😩

I have found this Java Lib (OCR) that seems to do _some_ of the job::

Perhaps you guys could fork it and improve..

Anyways, thanks! 😃
