[jira] [Comment Edited] (PDFBOX-4846) Capital Letter in PDF appear as small letter in PDFBox

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4846?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17116135#comment-17116135 ]

-------------------------------------------------------------------

The unicode of the "P" glyph is indeed "p":
 !image-2020-05-25-18-21-56-276.png! 

PDF.js also extracts "pROFIT", Chrome extracts "profit", Adobe extracts "profit". The ToUnicode stream has this:

<50> <0070>

0x50 is 80d (see image). 0x70 is a small "p". So I'd say PDFBox is correct, but I'm wondering why some others have a different text extraction. Maybe some autocorrect feature?
