Some points:

1. Geany will not load any file which contains NUL bytes after converting the encoding to UTF-8
2. There is no guaranteed way to detect encoding of a file
3. PDFs can contain image data which can contain NUL bytes and is not text that can be converted to UTF-8
4. The message "File 'some.PDF' does not look like a text file or the file encoding not supported" means one o fthe above occurred for every encoding Geany knows.
