[jira] [Commented] (PDFBOX-3438) only garbage extracted, lots of
warnings "No Unicode mapping..."
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3438?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15394050#comment-15394050 ]
Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-3438:
-----------------------------------------
There is no mapping to unicode. Adobbe Reader is not able to extract the text. Maybe pdftotext.exe is using OCR, or they're making a guess. I see that the glyph names are like "C0032", "C0047", etc.
