Tilman Hausherr closed PDFBOX-4881.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Do
Closing this one, as it is almost impossible. An ideal solution would be to
reconstruct /ToUnicode by using OCR for the individual glyphs, or better: by
using the OCR results to create a huge database with glyph outlines. This would
be a nice project for companies doing OCR as a service, because one would have
better text extraction than from "pure" OCR.
