------------------------------------
Summary: ExtractDocumentText processor does not handle certain
characters when extracting from a PDF
Key: NIFI-10218
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-10218
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Extensions
Reporter: Andrew M. Lim
Attachments: 625006.pdf, example.pdf
When a PDF has special characters ("+", "=",">", "+-"), when the text is
extracted from the document, these characters show up with different symbols.
I've attached two PDFs that illustrate the issue differently:
* 625006.pdf has multiple pages. When the text is extracted from a table,
certain characters show up as a ? symbol.
* example.pdf is a single page with the same table. When the text is extracted
the same characters show up as " or # symbols.
