I'm afraid the pdf doesn't contain any information on how to map those glyphs.
Even the adobe reader isn't able to map those.
Set resolution to "not a problem"

> I have an example PDF (will attach) that uses a right-single-quote
> character, but extracts incorrectly from PDFBox (using ExtractText).
> If I copy/paste, the text is correct (I get U+2019 for the right
> quote).
> Search for "cashier" in the PDF, on page 1 to see it; that right quote
> is supposed to come through as U+2019 I think.
> I looked at the PDF in PDFDebugger, and I see this fragment in the
> "Contents" for page 1:
> (Bring the voucher handout to the cashier\325s office \(10-180\))Tj
> So somehow this \325 escape fails to map to the quoteright glyph. The
> font is partial embedded font BPOLKO+TimesNewRomanPSMT, and I can see
> in the Charset (under FontDescriptor, for font F1) that it references
> this glyph.
> I also see a [correct] entry in glyphlist.txt, mapping to U+2019, so
> that's not the problem.
> Not sure what's going wrong... maybe somehow \325 fails to map to
> quoteright?
> There are other glyphs (quotedblright, quotedblleft) that are also not
> converted correctly, eg search for project review on page 2.
