Alternatively, you can use PDFTextStream (http://snowtide.com).
It also has an easy-to-use Lucene API, with code that looks like this:
Document doc = PDFDocumentFactory.buildPDFDocument(pdfFile, config); indexWriter.addDocument(doc);
One of the nice advantages of this is that the resulting Lucene Document instance can also contain the PDF document's metadata attributes as Lucene Fields.
Here's a longer tutorial that covers this and more:

Once you get the package installed the code you can use is:
Document doc = LucenePDFDocument.getDocument(file); writer.addDocument(doc);
This method returns the PDF in Lucene document format.
