Bug: Won't reindex with certain characters in PDF filename, and search issues

edited February 9, 2021
When the following characters (and I presume others) are in the PDF filename, Zotero will not reindex:
čβćμ≈ń

The following error is output:

---

(1)(+0000021): Error running C:\Program Files (x86)\Zotero\pdftotext.exe

(1)(+0000001): Error: C:\Program Files (x86)\Zotero\pdftotext.exe returned exit status 1 Error: C:\Program Files (x86)\Zotero\pdftotext.exe returned exit status 1 observe@chrome://zotero/content/xpcom/utilities_internal.js:771:27 From previous event: Zotero.FullText</this.indexItems@chrome://zotero/content/xpcom/fulltext.js:555:15

These were renamed with ZotFile, if that's relevant.

Some of these characters also aren't working properly in the search bar or Saved Search (e.g č), in that even if I copy and paste them from the author name of the parent item, the item does not appear in the search results. Although similarly named items do...

Some characters won't reindex but seem to work fine in search (e.g. β).

Thanks,
John
