Package: xpdf-utils
Version: 3.00-12
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/pdftotext
Drat, pdftotext -enc Big5 drops several characters, e.g. of
$ qp-encode < a.txt
=A4T=A6~=A1A
the middle A6~ will disappear. I bet it is the tilde. Nope, character
=B6q is also gone.
xpdf shows the character fine.
No I have no way to turn a.txt into a.pdf to test further.
All I know is that it happens in a file not on the net which is
$ pdfinfo zs.pdf
Title: [some mess: pdfinfo doesn't know Big5!]
Creator: Acrobat PDFMaker 6.0 for Word
Producer: Acrobat Distiller 6.0 (Windows)

Page size: 595 x 842 pts (A4)

Too big to mail back and forth. I would send you the first page, but
$ pdftk zs.pdf burst
Error: Failed to open PDF file:
zs.pdf
OWNER PASSWORD REQUIRED, but not given (or incorrect)
Jeez how silly. Can't this be bypassed.

thanks
Since xpdf uses poppler and do not provide programs such as
/usr/bin/pdftotext, I am closing all related bugs on xpdf-utils.
