/**
 * Parsers should throw this exception when they encounter
 * a file format that they do not support.  This should only happen
 * when we're not able to differentiate versions by the mime.  For example,
 * At the time of this writing, "application/wordperfect" covers all versions
 * of the wordperfect format; however, the parser only handles 6.x.
 * <p/>
 * Whenever possible/convenient, it is better to distinguish file formats by mime
 * so that unsupported formats will be handled by the
 * {@link org.apache.tika.parser.EmptyParser}.
 * However, if we can't differentiate by mime or we need to rely on the parser
 * to distinguish the versions (in the case that magic can't distinguish),
 * this exception should be thrown.
