Description Raul Kern 2012-02-20 09:38:43 UTC
The recognized 'üõöä' characters aren't displayed in text edit box for PDF files.
see: http://et.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Lehek%C3%BClg:Test_cropped.pdf/1&action=edit&redlink=1 and http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Wikisource:Scriptorium/Help#PDF_encoding_problem
Comment 1 Brion Vibber 2012-02-21 19:41:24 UTC
Possibly the text needs to be transcoded during extraction; not sure how this is presently handled.
Comment 2 Brion Vibber 2012-02-21 19:41:38 UTC
(in which case this may belong to PdfHandler ext)
Comment 3 Beau 2012-04-27 17:47:59 UTC
That is definitely not a Proofread extension bug. I am changing the component field to PdfHandler.

On my local installation it works fine - the text is correctly encoded. I suspect this is configuration issue on WMF servers.

The pdftotext command on my system is provided by poppler 0.18.4.
