I'm not familiar with 'pdftotext' (you should have provided a link
to thier homepage and/or authors - google didn't seem to provide
anything tangible) yet I have a couple of generic suggestions for ya,
1. Find an application that does lots of PDF to ... conversions
(to text, html, DOC, XML, etc) - the broader the better since
it will fill multiple needs in the future (if possible).
2. Contact the authors to see if Unicode/UTF-8 support is included
and/or forthcoming - "ask for it".
Once #2 is added, adding proper Arabic support should be much simpler
and we should be able to do that ourselves given interest.
In passing look into the various UTF-8 supporting search engines
(mnogosearch comes to mind) to see how they convert PDF's contents
to index 'em.
Salam.
