Consulting the PDF Reference 1.6 ( http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/pdf/PDFReference16.pdf ), there's an optional "Encoding" field (p.674) in the FDF dictionary, which defines handling for strings which don't begin with the BOM. It defaults to PDFDocEncoding, which seems sensible. To generate human- readable strings, it would seem sensible to convert the strings to the PDFDocEncoding when they're extracted.
