Hi Takashi,
I'm attaching an Arabic PDF used as a testcase.

> Corruption of Arabic output due to Japanese bug fix
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PDFBOX-679
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-679
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.1.0
> Reporter: Andreas Lehmkühler
> Attachments: zzz.pdf
>
>
> The recent Japanese bug fix in org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDFont
> defines a set of encoding names that are given special CJK treatment. This
> set is too broad. For example, it stipulates that the 'Identity-H' encoding
> should be processed as JIS.
> We have Arabic PDFs where compound Arabic glyphs use the 'Identity-H'
> encoding. In pdfBox 1.0.0 they used to output Arabic but now they output
> garbage, because the Arabic unicode data is sent to the CJK converter.
> I've copied that description from the users mailing list [1]
