    Description

      The pdf specification states, that PDFs use an ASCII compatible, 8 bit characterset.

      PDFBOX uses on various places the plattform encoding to convert bytes from/to strings.
      On JREs with an non ASCII compatible plattform encoding (there are such systems out there), this will break pdfbox.
