[BUG] Unipdf is messing up the unicode while merging Searchable PDF documents and applying PDF/1-a about unipdf

[anovik]

@sagar-kalburgi-ripcord The new release of UniPDF is available https://github.com/unidoc/unipdf/releases/tag/v3.57.0 and it includes this issue.

Closing the current ticket, feel free to re-open it in case of any problems.

Also if it helps, the two documents that I attached to this ticket claim to be PDF/A-1a compliant. But when I try validating either of these documents using unipdf PDF/A-1a validation function, the validation fails with some errors. But again if I try to enforce PDF/A-1a standard on the merged document, the unicode gets messed up and I am unable to search for any text.

Hello @sagar-kalburgi-ripcord we have fixed your issue, it was merged into development branch of unipdf source repository (I believe you have access to it and can test it).

It will be included in the next release of UniPDF as well, we will let you know when it will be out.

Hi @anovik,

Thanks! Sure I will test it. Any idea when the next release of UniPDF is going to be?

[anovik]

@sagar-kalburgi-ripcord It is planned for the end of April.

[sagar-kalburgi-ripcord]

@anovik I tested the fix from your development branch and it looks good!
I'm afraid that end of April is late for us. This issue is critically impacting Production and we are losing revenue for every day that passes with this issue being active. Would it be possible for you to provide a hotfix release for this at the earliest possible?

[anovik]

@sagar-kalburgi-ripcord We completely understand the urgency of your situation and are prioritizing the release of a hotfix to address this issue as quickly as possible.

We'll keep you updated on the progress and notify you as soon as the release is completed.

ok thanks!
