Dear All,
I am having issues with the text extraction of pdfs having non latin
characters and east asian languages. I tried switching to xpdf from pdfbox's
pdffilter but it is also not properly extracting the text from the pdf. If I
tried to extract the text from the pdf using the command line tools (ie java
-jar pdfbox-app-1.8.7.jar ExtractText -encoding UTF-8 <inputfile>
<outputtextfile> for pdfbox and pdftotext -enc UTF-8 for xpdf), it is
properly extracting the text.
Does anybody encountered that issue and how did you solved it? I looked at
the XPDF2Text.java and in line 53 it does include the UTF-8 encoding
("@COMMAND@", "-q", "-enc", "UTF-8", "@infile@", "-"). I'm wondering why it
is not properly extracting the text when I run filter-media but is working
when I am running it from the command line. In PDFFilter.java, I tried using
PDFTextStripper pts = new PDFTextStripper("UTF-8") but the result is still
the same.
Would greatly appreciate any hints, tips, suggestions and help.
Thanks in advance and regards,
euler
