pdftotext pass options

[welle]

Hi monks

On a Windows machine I am using pdftotext to bunch convert pdf files into plain text. Using the following, I get no problems:

system("$path/pdftotext","-nopgbrk","$path_my_pdf","$path_my_pdf.txt")
+;

I now want to add the encoding option "-enc UTF-8", so I try

system("$path/pdftotext","-enc UTF-8 -nopgbrk","$path_my_pdf","$path_m
+y_pdf.txt");

or simply

system("$path/pdftotext","-enc UTF-8","$path_my_pdf","$path_my_pdf.txt
+");

but it doesn't work. What am I missing? Thanks

SOLVED

system("$path/pdftotext","-enc", "UTF-8","$path_my_pdf","$path_my_pdf.
+txt");
