Extract CJK text from PDF

Dear all,

I need to write a program to extract Chinese (or CJK) text from pdf files. I use GetPageContent() function to extract text, it works perfectly for English text. But when I use the same piece of code to extract CJK content, it return messy code. I think this is the problem of extract CID or Unicode font. The attached file contains the Chinese Characters. Thank you.
 

Best regards,
Wilton K. W. Kwok

Text extraction is not supported in any way in iTextSharp. You're on your own.
