# Extract Embedded OLE Objects

The File Extraction API can extract embedded OLE objects from the following types of documents:

- Microsoft Excel
- Microsoft Word
- Microsoft PowerPoint
- Microsoft Outlook
- Microsoft Visio
- Rich Text Format (RTF)

When an embedded OLE object is extracted from its parent file, the location where the embedded file appears in the original document is not available. The parent and child are extracted as separate files.
