Primary uses: 1. Text extraction to facilitate full-text indexing of PDFs
2. Constructing PDFs for “art manuscripts”: taking a set of images and associated metadata from a CMS and producing PDFs that show the images and the metadata, one per page. PDF includes a QR code that captures essential CMS details, such as object ID. Use PDF box to read PDFs that are scans of these previously-generated pages (e.g., somebody prints the original PDF, marks on it, scans it back to a new PDF), extract the QR code, and correlate the scanned page image to the original image from which the first PDF was generated.
