Hi All,
I am using the method PdfTextObject.GetCharInfo to read the individual character from the document. This works fine for most of the cases. However, there are some documents (possibly unicode) which do not make sense.

E.g. The PDF document has the words "Page 10"
The property PdfTextObj.TextUnicode correctly gives me "Page 10"
However, the charcode values from GetCharInfo(index,charcode,kerning) are as follows:

Index 0->44
Index 1->6
Index 2->27
Index 3->11
Index 4->1
Index 5->28
etc.

I am under the assumption, that the right encoding has to be applied to make proper sense of "charcode". Any help?

Many thanks,
Sau
