Simply install tesseract and re-run your testing again and it should
instantly work as tika will detect tesseract is available. I've used tika
and tesseract recently with success so I know 1.13 works.

That looks promising. It will be ugly to work with but extracting text from a
PDF can be no fun either.
I will download the tesseract and see if I can get it working. I will let you
know how it works.

You'll need to set up tesseract to run Optical Character Recognition. While we
have an integration with OCR, it is not bundled within the app.

For kicks, I ran this through Tika+Tesseract; this is the output you get once
you've set up Tesseract:

I have tried using the GUI for tika-app-1.13 but it shows nothing. I can see
the metdata but that does not give me the information I need. I have attached
the file.
Maybe it is not possible to extract the text. If so what should I be looking
for to tell me that it cannot extract the text.
