> Currently, the text parser implementation uses the default encoding of the
> Java runtime when instantiating a Reader for the passed input stream. We
> need to support other encodings as well.
> It would be helpful to support the specification of an encoding in the parse
> method.
> Ideally, Tika would also provide the ability to determine the encoding
> automatically based on the data stream. (Unicode files may have byte order
> marks (http://unicode.org/faq/utf_bom.html#BOM), but I don't know if other
> encodings can be inferred from content.)
