Hello, I am first time user of pdfbox and java. I have downloaded the source code and opened in eclipse IDE.
After adding all the references I am able to execute the pdf reader application. But when I try to open any pdf I am getting runtime exception. To Run I am following these steps. 1. Right click pdfreader.java and click run as java application 2. A window opens having title: PDFBox - PDF Reader 3. From file menu select a pdf and click open. 4. Nothing happens in window 5. console window in the eclipse records exception as shown below. I have referenced following jars which I had downloaded from various locations 1. common-logging 1.1.1.jar 2. bcprov-jdk16-145.jar 3. icu4j-4_4_1_1.jar 4. bcmail-jdk15-1.38.jar 5. fontbox-1.2.1.jar 6. jempbox-1.2.1.jar Please correct if I have referenced any wrong jar or any jar is missing. Please forgive my ignorance. Please check the exception details in console of eclipse below.
