I have not yet retrieved your question via the mailing list. Have you not registered with it or is it simply slow? Anyways, what you need to do is text parsing that region. You'll find information on PDF content parsing in chapter 15 of iText in Action — 2nd Edition <http://itextpdf.com/book/> --- the sample for you to take as a starting point is ExtractPageContentArea.java <http://itextpdf.com/examples/iia.php?id=279> Be aware, though, that text content parsing from PDFs can be somewhat fickle...
