Demo pdf with several fonts
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make, using Adobe Acrobat, a form with some text fields defined to show text
in default font Helvetica
2. Type in åäö € in the field
3. Switch to view mode
OBSERVED RESULT
It shows the bytes of the utf-16 as individual characters...

I would expect it to show what i typed. Acrobat is able to show properly all

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 11
KDE Plasma Version: ???
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.109.0
Qt Version: 5.15.10
Poppler 23.09.0
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
On my computer Okular shows OK with Arial as font (matching that of non-field
text), but our customer see it too failing. I just sent them "Times Roman"
variant now as that seems to work as well for me. But it would be great if your
tool would be well tested with all non-ASCII charcters. It's my understanding
that pre-2.0 pdf is either "local codepage" or UTF-16, with UTF-8 introduced in
pdf 2.0 . But you don't seem to support pdf 2.0 anyways.
