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.
