Yet another person’s trouble with PDF as source data file format. It is just not suited for data-transfer and I start to wonder when PDF’s benefits will be out-weight by it’s stark disadvantages. If ever Unicode goes global and systems would support it, then all that is left for PDF would be document safety and confidentiality reasons (so stuff we still would have to juggle with).
