Description

A small handful of our parsers call other parsers "inline" to handle portions of a document. By, inline, I mean that they aren't calling the other parsers on attachments or embedded objects; rather, they are calling the parsers on material that is meant to be understood as part of the main document, e.g. TesseractOCRParser on a rendered image of a PDF page.

On TIKA-3069, carina.antunes pointed out that there is a bit of a disconnect in returning the container file's text in the /unpack/all endpoint with images in PDFs.
