That's somewhat expected and will change (I think) when using picocli for 
pdfbox.java too. Will finish it over the WE.

> The command line tools shall be enhanced to have the same behavior across all 
> tools.
> From the discussion on the dev mailing list
> - add an -h option to print the usage
> - print the usage to System.err and use an exit code of 1 if there was an 
> invalid command line parameter
> - print messages on exceptions to System.err
> - rethrow the exception so java can handle it if it will terminate afterwards 
> anyway
> - use an exit code of 1if rethrowing doesn't make sense
