I checked this file: Thats exactly this type of file I am talking about, here
the Metadata, attached as screen shot: Power Macintosh in 1999 with Acrobat
Distiller 3.0, embedded only subsets of the fonts. At this time, Macintosh did
not even know unicode...
> Arabic PDF doesn't extract correctly

>
> I have a PDF w/ Arabic font that Tika fails to extract (gets all
> gibberish).
> Looks like the PDF does not include the separate Unicode text metadata
> (hmm: would Tika extract that if it were present?), and copy/paste out
> of the PDF also produces gibberish.
> To fix this I think we'd somehow have to know the mapping for the
> font (this particular font is AXTManal)?
