John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-1919:
-------------------------------------
I have a theory: when you copy & paste from Acrobat you're actually getting the
_marked content_ (if available), i.e. the span tags. However, when you save as
text you're getting the proper Unicode text.
> Font descriptor flags are not implemented
