Public Property PreferFontEncodings As Boolean
	Get
	Set

Field Value

true if library should prefer encodings specified in font bytes over encodings specified in PDF structures; false otherwise.

Remarks

Every font in a PDF document has associated encoding which is defined in corresponding PDF structure.

Some PDF generators might create PDF documents with incorrect PDF encodings. For such documents text is usually displayed properly, but can not be properly extracted even by Adobe tools. However, embedded font bytes might specify proper encoding in such documents.

Setting this property to true might help to extract text properly even if document is created with incorrect PDF structures.

Default value: false.
