John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-3347:
-------------------------------------
{{E5}} on its own is not a valid UTF-8 sequence, which must be how iText is
detecting that the encoding of this name is wrong, and falling back to
ISO-8859-1. We can do the same.
> COSName parsing/writing interprets byte sequences as UTF-8 when parsing
