Tim Allison commented on TIKA-2018:
-----------------------------------
Great to hear from you, [~joeranb]! Y, we've already integrated grobid. I
think this issue focuses more on our traditional PDFParser, which is a light
wrapper around PDFBox.
I've been following PDFBOX-3405 on how to extract font size, so I think if I
just looked at "your part", we should be good, although, if anyone wanted to
contribute a patch with test cases, that'd be great!
Would you mind pointing me to the place in your code that extracts titles?

> A vast majority of pdf documents don't fill meta information.
> As a matter of fact, Tika won't be able to get information like the title.

> What do you think ?
