John Hewson closed PDFBOX-832.
------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Closing because tables don't exist in the PDF format - this is a case for OCR.
The bounding boxes of text can already be extracted, see PrintTextLocations.
> Extract text from table, or find table co-ordinates from page. If there is no
> way to find out table, then just give co-ordinates of rectangle.
