Andreas Lehmkühler resolved PDFBOX-894.
---------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: 1.3.1
Assignee: Andreas Lehmkühler
Works fine at least since 1.3.1. I've attached the first page using PDFBox
1.3.1 to extract. I didn't use any additional option but "-sort". The default
encoding is UTF-8.
Maybe the author uses an editor to watch the result which isn't capable of
handling utf-8 encoded text?
Set to resolved.
> Can`t open XREF as a stream. Latin Chars unreconized

> Latin characters (e.g. á, é, í, õ, ç) just aren`t recognized in PDF, creating
> text files with strange characters like Œ, ? and ˆ instead of the right ones.
> I tryied to investigate through the PDFBox code what could have caused this,
> but with my limited knowledge on PDF formating, I couldn`t advance too much.
> There are 2 points which I`d like to comment:
> 1 - The PDF has no XREF table, using Stream XREF(e.g. 3076/Type/XRef/W[1 3
> 1]>>stream) instead;
> 2 - While encoding the byte stream (COSStream.getFilteredStream().doEncode())
> the Filter encoding is FlateDecode (not sure if it`s a real issue, since in
> other PDFs I get this same encoding and it works fine).
> I`m not sure if there`s a problem with the pdf itself, since I can open it
> and see the Latin Characters with no trouble at Adobe and Foxit Readers.
> Attached is on of the PDFs that I`m talking about. The issue is seen from the
> 5th page on.
