I don't, but man pdftohtml -> Pdftohtml was developed by Gueorgui Ovtcharov and Rainer Dorsch. It is based and benefits a lot from Derek Noonburg?s xpdf package. man xpdf -> -enc encoding-name Sets the encoding to use for text output. The encoding-name must be defined with the unicodeMap command (see xpdfrc(5)). This defaults to "Latin1" (which is a built-in encoding). [con- fig file: textEncoding] man xpdfrc -> unicodeMap encoding-name map-file [...] The Latin1, ASCII7, Symbol, ZapfDingbats, UTF-8, and UCS-2 encodings are predefined. I'm afraid you'll have to read the elided part if you need an encoding other than these six.
