             Summary: Names of command line options for tools inconsistent - 
misleading usage message
                 Key: PDFBOX-6262
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-6262
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.0.8 PDFBox
            Reporter: Volker Kunert


The names of the tools differ in tools/PDFBox.java and the classes of the 
individual tools.
This leads to misleading messages like the following:

java -jar pdfbox-app-4.0.0-trunk-SNAPSHOT.jar *export:text*
Missing required option: '--input='
Extracts the text from a PDF document
Usage: pdfbox *extracttext* [-hV] [-addFileName] [-alwaysNext] [-append]

The patch [https://github.com/apache/pdfbox/pull/531] consolidates the names.
