John Hewson closed PDFBOX-2009.
-------------------------------
Resolution: Not a Problem
It turns out that the section in the PDF spec about the BOM does not apply to
content stream text - instead it applies to bookmarks, annotations, etc. The
code size of content stream text should actually be determined by the CMap of
the current Font.

> When having a text print operation like
> <FEFF21222193219103B103A003A6> Tj
> than the PDFStreamEngine.processEncodedText does not handle this correctly.
> Am I correct that if a BOM was determined, the codelength should be set to 2
> (and not be changed)? Or should alternatively simply the BOM be skipped?
> It may be related to PDFBOX-920
