Dear list, I am currently scraping some text data from several PDFs using the readPDF() function in the tm package. This all works very well and in most cases the encoding seems to be "latin1" - in some, however, it is not. Is there a good way in R to check character encodings? I found the functions is.utf8() and is.local() in the tau package but that obviously only gets me so far.
Thanks.
