i only tested in android. so the error might be from pdfBox

i think specifying the font while calling the method might solve. Just saying not sure

Apparently there are some characters in the the font TAUElangoArunthathi that have no mapping for Unicode. So I guess that PdfBox can't turn them into plain text. Unfortunately I couldn't reproduce the error. I tried with a tamil pdf and PdfBox didn't complain. Maybe a similar error would present on iOS too.

while parsing tamil pdf which font used by PdfBox??
