Onlu CJK Unicode is supported in text extraction. There's no major dificulty in
supporting other cmaps, it's just not done.

Hello,
I met with a PDF file which does not embed font subsets and consequently failed
to extract text from it.
The fact that a font isn't embedded doesn't mean you can't extract text. Text
extraction doesn't need to know what a glyph looks like, it only needs to know
the correct unicode value of each character. I don't know if iText is already
able to parse CJK form. Can you share a sample PDF that fails, so that we can
take a look at it?
