Beschreibung

extracted from #1379 PS : in the extraction result, the arabic characters are replaced with /afiinnnn. this is because the data uses the iso 10036 standard that I've not been able to find any free information on how to do transcoding file 02voc.pdf test code:

import PyPDF2;
PyPDF2.PdfReader("e:/02voc.pdf").pages[2].extract_text()
