Michele Balistreri commented on PDFBOX-2798:
--------------------------------------------
/JS would be a good bet. Detection is what happens in the patch, so basically
the code would be
if (bytes.length >= 2 && (bytes[0] == (byte) 0xFE && bytes[1] == (byte)
0xFF) || (bytes[0] == (byte) 0xFF && bytes[1] == (byte) 0xFE))
{
System.out.println("this is UTF-16");
}
else
{
System.out.println("this is not UTF-16");
}
> PDTextStream does not support UTF16 with BOM

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2798
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.8.10, 2.0.0
> Reporter: Michele Balistreri
> Attachments: PDTextStream-UTF16.diff

>
> the getAsString() method from PDTextStream is quite useful, but it does not
> support UTF-16 text. I added a small check on the first two bytes to support
> UTF-16 content. This is needed because two-bytes encodings do not degrade
> gracefully like UTF-8, even for plain ASCII text and so the resulting string
> is unusable.
