Hi, everyone My situation is as follows
1) I am trying to reconfigure Dspace to use xpdf media filter on my 4.1 test installation. Install went smooth as far as I understand and I am able to run filter-media without any error messages displayed. 2) Extraction works fine for English-language files. However extraction from Russian-language (cyrillic) pdfs returns txt with a mess of unrecognizable characters. 3) Strange thing is that I did set "textEncoding UTF-8" option in xpdfrc config file for xpdf. So presumably txt files generated by xpdf should be ok encoding-wise. To test it I run xpdf from command prompt on one of my cyrillic pdfs. Output txt file was readable and utf-8-encoded as expected. Later I uploaded this txt file to Dspace as ordinary bitstream for one of my test items and opened it from Dspace with view/open. Browser displayed unrecognizable characters with encoding autodetected as cyrillic-iso-8859-5. Changing it manually to utf-8 returns expected text. Any ideas on how to fix it?
