I am trying to migrate a project from a commercial Windows PDF library to PDFBox, but I see reduced accuracy when I extract text from arbitrary files.

For example, I have a PDF (enclosed) that does not have Unicode mappings for certain glyph ... and so when I try and extract the text using PDF Box I get the following:

WARNING: No Unicode mapping for G70 (112) in font HAGLDF+MSTT31c5ed

The Windows library returns the correct text for the gliph with missing character mapping. Is there a way for me to add some code to make PDFBox or my program figure out what the text is in this case ?

Yes, but you'd need to build from source because G70 is non standard, the change is described in
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3962
at the bottom.

Thanks for any help,
