Hi, @wldgntlmn. I'm Dosu, and I'm helping the dify-official-plugins team manage their backlog and am marking this issue as stale.

Issue Summary:

  • You reported that nested sub-tables in DOCX files are not extracted by the self-hosted Doc Extractor version 1.8.0.
  • Only the main table content is recognized; sub-tables are ignored.
  • You provided a sample DOCX file to demonstrate the problem.
  • No error logs were generated during the extraction process.
  • There has been no further activity or updates on this issue.

What's Next:

  • If I do not hear back within 5 days, I will automatically close this issue.

Thank you for your understanding and contribution!
