Tyler Palsulich commented on PDFBOX-2451:
-----------------------------------------

I'm still running into this issue with the attached PDF. Chrome can open the file without issue. But, running ExtractText with the 1.8.9 jar from the snapshots link outputs gibberish.

> I was told to report a bug here. There are problems with extracting text from PDF files in Dutch. The bug was reported in issue TIKA-1095 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1095). The problem can be reproduced with the latest Tika version.
> The extracted Text only shows gibberish (or in other cases question marks and incorrect characters).
> It was suggested it could be a font problem. Could this be looked into?
