[jira] [Created] (PDFBOX-2384) ExtractText should default to UTF-8

John Hewson created PDFBOX-2384:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: ExtractText should default to UTF-8
                 Key: PDFBOX-2384
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2384
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Utilities
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: John Hewson
            Priority: Minor


ExtractText (and perhaps also PDFTextStripper) should default to UTF-8, which is what most people expect. There have been two long-standing open issues PDFBOX-755, PDFBOX-970, because of not using having a good default.
