I am having great difficulty installing PDFBox.1.8.7. I have installed Apache (on a Windows 7 machine). >From my browswer address bar, "http:\\localhost\" responds: "It Works!", indicating that Apache is truly running.
I have installed the following Java JDK: jdk-7u71-windows-i586.exe I have installed Maven. >From the cmd line, "mvn --version" responds: Apache Maven 3.2.3 Maven home: C:\Apache\apache-maven-3.2.3 Java version: 1.8.0_25. vendor: Oracle Corporation Java home: C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_25 Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: Cp1252 OS name: "Windows 7", version: "6.1", arch: "x86", family: "dos" Maven appears to be installed, as well as Java. I have downloaded and extracted the following: pdfbox-1.8.7-scr I have downloaded the following: commons-logging-1.2.jar jempbox-1.8.7.jar fontbox-1.8.7.jar pdfbox-1.8.7.jar pdfbox-app-1.8.7.jar and I have updated the CLASSPATH to include the System Variable PATH for each of above. This is where things fall apart. It is not clear how to complile PDFBox. Do you use a 'jar' command? Can someone please point me to the documentation to compile PDFBox? Is there a fee based PDFBox Helpline anywhere on planet earth? Thanks, ~LCarroll
