> The pdf specification states, that PDFs use an ASCII compatible, 8 bit 
> characterset.
> PDFBOX uses on various places the plattform encoding to convert bytes from/to 
> strings.
> On JREs with an non ASCII compatible plattform encoding (there are such 
> systems out there), this will break pdfbox.
