You are correct. The pdfs consists of scanned text and yes pdfbox can't extract that text, but the images. Those could be used with a OCR-software to get the text. I didn't try that but it should work, more or less precise. BTW: It is always a good idea to extract the text using the acrobat reader. Just select the text a copy and paste it to an editor. If that doesn't work it most likely won't work using PDFBox. > > Thanks, > Stephen > > -----Original Message----- > From: Big Donkeys [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Friday, 20 July 2012 6:09 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Can't extract text Adobe-WinCharSetFFFF-UCS2 > > Hi, I'm having some troubles extracting text from some South Korean PDF > files using PDFTextStripper.
