Arabic PDF doesn't extract correctly
------------------------------------

                 Key: TIKA-722
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-722
             Project: Tika
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: parser
            Reporter: Michael McCandless
            Priority: Minor


I have a PDF w/ Arabic font that Tika fails to extract (gets all
gibberish).

Looks like the PDF does not include the separate Unicode text metadata
(hmm: would Tika extract that if it were present?), and copy/paste out
of the PDF also produces gibberish.

To fix this I think we'd somehow have to know the mapping for the
font (this particular font is AXTManal)?
