Hesham commented on PDFBOX-938:
-------------------------------
I am using eclipse .. Its default encoding is CP1252 ... There're 2 points here
:
1. Arabic characters appear fine, which needs a similar encoding.
2. I have created a jar sample that reads the PDF + writes the output to a
textArea(Or whatever output component) to see it(The component font is Tahoma).
