Aamir commented on TIKA-4231:
-----------------------------
No, this doesn't look better. Actually, I would say that it looks worse than
before.
> Parsing Arabic PDF is returning bad data

> Key: TIKA-4231
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-4231
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.6.0, 2.9.1
> Environment: I am using Java 18. And using maven dependency
> tika-parsers-standard-package
> ([https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.tika/tika-parsers/2.6.0)]
>
> Reporter: Aamir
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: arabic-pdfbox.txt, arabic.pdf, arabic.txt
>
>
> Attached is a PDF with arabic text in it.
> When parsed using tika version 2.6.0 or 2.9.1, it produces gibberish
> characters.
> The generated text doc is also attached which contains the parsed text.
> Most of the other Arabic PDFs parse fine, but this one is giving this output.
