Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-4431:
-----------------------------------------
PDFBox can extract all text when the fonts work and the PDF has Unicode
mappings so I don't understand your question. For me, the attached PDF was
fine. It's the tool you have tried that may not work fully, but I haven't
investigated that one. Maybe it's a bug there, or maybe it works only with some
PDF structures.
You can convert text back to PDF with the TextToPDF utility, also from
pdfbox-app.

> The code I have posted takes in 5 arguments which include the location to a
> pdf document and a search term. The code is to parse through the PDF document
> and return all the matches to the keyword in the document and return their
> locations depending on the format (last given argument).
> The code for some reason recognizes only a few words and errors on other
> words. I am not sure why this is.
> There seems to be no difference in these words in terms of font, size
> location etc.
