as pointed out, this *is* hard - but much of the hard work has been done already.
You'll use this as a starting point: com.itextpdf.text.pdf.parser.PdfReaderContentParser Then pass in your own render listener (LocationTextExtractionStrategy would be a really, really good thing to start with). Take a look at how LocationTextExtractionStrategy operates in the getResultantText() method, and make adjustments as you see fit.
