-------------------------------------------------------------------
Uhm - the ping was in another issue, related to the release of 2.0. This time
the best would be to compare 2.0 trunk (not RC1 - I fixed some regressions
recently) against last 1.8 release (1.8.10).
I expect many differences, but the amount of "good" tokens (known words) should
increase.

> When the input document of PDFTextStripper is a combination of right-to-left
> and left-to-right languages, the output characters of one language is
> reversed.
> A sample bilingual pdf document is attached.
> PDFTextStripper has a variable "isRtlDominant" in "writePage" function, which
> is defined as follows: boolean isRtlDominant = rtlCount > ltrCount;
> This class clearly count the number of rtl characters and decide if the whole
> content should be revered or not. It's not true, it must operate on each
> word, not the whole document.
