no, the result is right and I can display them in a web page properly. 
and I want to say that the resultSet is not the same java.sql.ResultSet it
is a class I implement it to use Lucene results.

the strange thing is that if I dont use getBytes("UTF-8") the displayed info
in result pdf are weird characters but if I specify that line (I mean
getBytes("UTF-8") ) in result  no string will be displayed and I see a blank
space !
