-----------------------------------

David,

Thank you for submitting this.  I fixed the issue triggered by your file and a 
few other variants that occurred to me.  I wouldn't be surprised if we'll need 
to make more modifications.  Please submit any other issues you find.  Thank 
you, again.

> attached document extracts correctly in Tika 1.1
> attached document extracts incorrectly in tika 1.2.
> The difference appears to be that tika 1.1 honors the http meta content-type 
> tag which specifies the charset as iso-8859-6, and correctly converts the 
> output to UTF-8.
> tika 1.2 appears to ignore the charset specified in the meta tag.
> Some noodling seems to indicate that the problem is the charset.
> it doesn't matter what mode tika is used in (server, app mode, etc. even if 
> content-type is specified with a charset, the output is still garbage).
