115 The additional package consists of encoding files for use with
116 <application>Poppler</application>. The encoding files are optional and
117 <application>Poppler</application> will automatically read them if they
118 are present. When installed, they enable
119 <application>Poppler</application> to render CJK and Cyrillic properly.
