google tells me those error messages are from pdftotext, part of the
xpdf package. They aren't from swish-e.

The error message above suggests the problem is with the encoding of the
PDF documents. Swish-e 2.x does not support UTF-8 encoding, but it does
support single-byte encodings. Try running pdftotext directly on one of
the PDF files and examine the output to see what swish-e is receiving.

 % pdftotext file.pdf > file.txt
 % hexdump -C file.txt
