Martin Koegler updated PDFBOX-945:
----------------------------------
Attachment: 05-change-encoding.patch
Patch 05:
PDStream.getInputStreamAsString() convers an byte array to a string, assuming
that the byte data has plattform encoding.
The content of the Stream are PDF (parts), so its likely in ISO-8859-1.
For the caller, the encoding is irrelevant, as it returns a String.
> PDFBOX may not depend on plattform encoding

> 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.
