Description

PDFBox doesnt render indic languages correcly. Tried with telugu which is rendering correctly.

 

Typing Brahmarshi vishwamitra in Hindi and Telugu which should look like the following but in actual rendering all characters were displayed separately.

Telugu బ్రహ్మర్షి విశ్వామిత్ర 

Hindi ब्रह्मर्षि विस्वामित्र  

Seems there is issue with calligraphy.
