>             Project: Tika
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: parser
>    Affects Versions: 2.4.1
>         Environment: win 8, jre 1.5
>            Reporter: tom hill
>            Priority: Major

> It appears that the issue in TIKA-1289 is still present. Ligatures get replaced by a question mark.
> As a particular example, the ft ligature is getting replaced by utf-8: ef bf  bd
> Is there any new resolution on this issue? Just returning the fl ligature would be great, or normalizing it to f, t.
> This particular example comes from saving my gmail inbox page as a pdf, in chrome. It uses the ft ligature in the word "Drafts".
> There are many similar examples, it's not specific to one pdf generator. 
> I'm using tika-app-2.4.1.jar
