Description

On TIKA-2689, we plan to add detection for Illustrator files that are based on/wrapped in PDF files at parse time. Illustrator files used to be eps or just ps. We should figure out how we want to distinguish between these two or three formats.

TIKA-2689 has some great resource links to help with this.

Pronom has a bunch of ids for "Illustrator", summarized: http://justsolve.archiveteam.org/wiki/Adobe_Illustrator_Artwork

One example: https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/PRONOM/Format/proFormatSearch.aspx?status=detailReport&id=1350
