Do you have the proper amount of slashes? (Assuming you do) This answer doesn't really apply to PDFBox specifically, but from my experience with local file:// URLs, is that this is an OSX security measure which block the functionality. This is just a hunch but I've had java applets blocked in Safari until I changed from file:// to http://, which was fantastically difficult to troubleshoot.
