John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-2384:
-------------------------------------
Seeing as we no longer need instances of the TextNormalize class to be passed
around, I'll refactor that too.
> ExtractText should default to UTF-8

> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Utilities
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0

>
> ExtractText (and perhaps also PDFTextStripper) should default to UTF-8, which
> is what most people expect. There have been two long-standing open issues
> PDFBOX-755, PDFBOX-970, because of not using having a good default.
> I've escalated this to a bug, see the first comment.
