[jira] [Created] (PDFBOX-4032) Handle correctly special characters while writing COSString

Ladislav Dudáš created PDFBOX-4032:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Handle correctly special characters while writing COSString
                 Key: PDFBOX-4032
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4032
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Writing
    Affects Versions: 2.0.8
            Reporter: Ladislav Dudáš
             Fix For: 2.0.9


Regarding to case PDFBOX-3107. There was change in CosWritter.java that if string contains characters CR (0x0d) and LF (0x0a) the string is written in hex format. This may be ok, but PDF specification (7.3.4.2 Literal Strings) explicitly defines more characters that should handle specially.

I'm providing another version of the code that handles all special characters without transforming to hex format.
