>    Affects Versions: 1.11
>         Environment: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_60-b27)
>            Reporter: Olivier M

> Just noticed that Apache Tika removes form feed characters (0C in UTF-8) when parsing a text file.
> If I compare the hex bytes of the original file and the hex bytes of the extracted text I can see that the 0C character is replaced by  EF BF BD which is the UTF-8 replacement character.
> {code:title=Test.java|borderStyle=solid}
> 	public static void main(String[] args) {
> 		InputStream is = null;
> 		
> 		try {
> 			is = new FileInputStream("form_feed.txt");
> 			
> 			AutoDetectParser parser = new AutoDetectParser();
> 			Writer stringWriter = new StringWriter();
> 			ContentHandler handler = new BodyContentHandler(stringWriter);
> 			Metadata metadata = new Metadata();
> 			parser.parse(is, handler, metadata);
> 			
> 			String extractedText = stringWriter.toString();
> 			System.out.println(extractedText);
> 			
> 			String hex = Hex.encodeHexString(extractedText.getBytes("UTF-8"));
> 			
> 			System.out.println(hex); //0C replaced by EFBFBD
> 		} catch (Exception e) {
> 			e.printStackTrace();
> 		} finally {
> 			IOUtils.closeQuietly(is);
> 		}
> 	}
> {code}
