A mechanism is provided for embedding an object in a receiving or client document such that a client application may operate on the embedded object to include interrogation and modification of data contained in the embedded object. When a given document object is embedded into a receiving document, data representing the embedded object is saved to a data stream storage for the receiving document. When the embedded object in the receiving document is subsequently requested in response to an operation executed on the embedded object, the receiving application obtains the data representation of the embedded object from the data stream storage. Once the receiving application obtains the data representation of the embedded object, the receiving application may perform operations on the embedded object by accessing the embedded object via its data representation.

Exposing embedded data in a computer-generated document

Systems and methods are disclosed for recovering data. The disclosed systems and methods may include locating a central directory in a file archive. Furthermore, the disclosed systems and methods may include determining that a local header located in the file archive is authentic if at least one of a plurality of records in the local header match at least one of a corresponding record in the central directory. The local header may be located in the file archive using an offset specified in the central directory. Moreover, the disclosed systems and methods may include determining that the local header is valid and recovering item data associated with the local header if the local header is authentic and valid.
