Hello team!
i'm trying to read documents using SimpleDirectoryReader but it gives this error.
The error is coming from a pptx file that contains images.

def get_file_metadata(filename: str) -> Dict:
    file_name = os.path.basename(filename)
    file_name_without_extension = os.path.splitext(file_name)[0]
    metadata = {"file_name": file_name_without_extension}
    return metadata

chatbot_data = SimpleDirectoryReader("data/", file_metadata=get_file_metadata).load_data()

Here is my code for Reading Data folder

@Logan M have a look here

@Ahsan Mirza seems like the issue is with PIL while reading image.

rravitheja

If you are converting it to PDF and trying with SimpleDirectoryReader not sure if the images in pdf will be read by 'pypdf'

rravitheja

from PIL import Image

print(Image.registered_extensions())

rravitheja

can you try running this code?
This will list the image formats PIL supports on your system. Check if WMF format is present in the output. If not that is the issue here.

AAhsan Mirza

please guide me where should i run this code?

rravitheja

python shell/ jupyter notebook

@Logan M @ravitheja

rravitheja

Okay. Interesting, PIL supports WMF but it seems its unable to recognize the format. Weird.

AAhsan Mirza

@Ahsan Mirza If you can share the pptx on DM, I can try checking on my end.

AAhsan Mirza

@ravitheja check your dm

PptxReader = download_loader("PptxReader")

documents = loader.load_data(file=Path('./Bank_book_PP_draft.pptx'))
