Thanks, Adam for the response, but I am still not clear on how to get the
ExtractText function to work.
The "Command line utility" section of the web site indicates:
<<
In order to run them as java applications you need to add the following jars to
your classpath
%PDFBOX_HOME%\external\log4j-1.2.9.jar
%PDFBOX_HOME%\lib\PDFBox-0.X.X.jar
>>
But after downloading and extracting the jar file
(jar -xf pdfbox-0.8.0-incubating-standalone.jar), I coud not find the "lib"
directory nor "log4j-1.2.9.jar" in "external" directory.
Does anyone have more detailed instructions on how to get ExtractText feature
to work on a command line?
Thanks,
Nguyen

Help on usage
Hi,
I am trying to use pdfbox to extract text out of pdf files and having a
hard time. I was wondering if anyone has some time to help me.
(1) Downloaded the pre-built standalone binary
(pdfbox-0.8.0-incubating-standalone.jar)
(2) Extracted the files using: jar -xf
pdfbox-0.8.0-incubating-standalone.jar
But could not find the windows binaries of the command line utilities as
indicated on the web site - "They are available as windows binaries and as
standard Java applications." (
http://pdfbox.apache.org/commandlineutilities/index.html)
Thanks,
Nguyen Dao
