    Description

      TTF magic is probably not specific enough, because it incorrectly detect MS Money files as TTF files, and then the parsing generates an Exception.

      Caused by: ! java.io.IOException: head is mandatory
      ! at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.AbstractTTFParser.parseTables(AbstractTTFParser.java:107)

      Here is the magic detection code that I added to custom-mimetypes.xml, and solves it:

      <mime-info>
	<mime-type type="application/x-msmoney">
		<glob pattern="*.mny" />
		<magic priority="60">
			<match value="0x000100004D534953414D204461746162617365" type="string" offset="0" />
		</magic>
	</mime-type>

      It can replace the existing application/x-msmoney empty mime-type in tika-mimetypes.xml.

      magic comes from
