[jira] Commented: (PDFBOX-938) Wrong extracted text using PDFBox
1.4
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-938?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12989765#comment-12989765 ]
Andreas Lehmkühler commented on PDFBOX-938:
-------------------------------------------
@Hesham
I can confirm the issue with your sample. But I can't help you. As I already said, I'm not an AWT expert, but it seems that something is wrong with the encoding or the used font in your application.
As the current trunk works fine I'm going to solve this issue.
