Can PDFBox or POI handle multi-byte characters with different enc odings?

Hi,

Currently we are using PDFBox to process PDF files and
POI to process DOC/XLS files, before send strings to lucene
for indexing,

Does any one know if PDFBox or POI can process multi-
byte characters like Japanese with various encodings (whatever
specified in PDF or DOC)?

Thanks very much for helps, Lisheng

PDFBox can handle multi-byte encodings.  There are a couple recent fixes
for CJK languages that are not part of 0.7.2 but are part of the nightly
build.
