Martijn Brinkers commented on PDFBOX-894: ----------------------------------------- Do you have the ICU jar on the classpath? > Can`t open XREF as a stream. Latin Chars unreconized > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PDFBOX-894 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-894 > Project: PDFBox > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Parsing > Affects Versions: 1.3.1 > Environment: Windows XP > Reporter: Pedro Rodrigues > Attachments: TJMT_20101025.pdf > > > Latin characters (e.g. á, é, í, õ, ç) just aren`t recognized in PDF, creating > text files with strange characters like Œ, ? and ˆ instead of the right ones. > I tryied to investigate through the PDFBox code what could have caused this, > but with my limited knowledge on PDF formating, I couldn`t advance too much. > There are 2 points which I`d like to comment: > 1 - The PDF has no XREF table, using Stream XREF(e.g. 3076/Type/XRef/W[1 3 > 1]>>stream) instead; > 2 - While encoding the byte stream (COSStream.getFilteredStream().doEncode()) > the Filter encoding is FlateDecode (not sure if it`s a real issue, since in > other PDFs I get this same encoding and it works fine). > I`m not sure if there`s a problem with the pdf itself, since I can open it > and see the Latin Characters with no trouble at Adobe and Foxit Readers. > Attached is on of the PDFs that I`m talking about. The issue is seen from the > 5th page on. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
