You probably need fontbox and jempbox as well. Ask maven nicely and it'll tell you what the dependencies are
Have a look at the troubleshooting page too, lots of good advice there on missing parsers and dependencies
http://wiki.apache.org/tika/Troubleshooting%20Tika
Also is there anyway to get Tika to complain or throw an exception if it doesn't have the dependencies that it needs?
Yes, you just need a Tika Config file that has WARN or THROW for load error handling, see
http://tika.apache.org/1.10/configuring.html#Load_Error_Handling Nick
