Hi Lauretta, >> Can someone please point me to the documentation to compile PDFBox?
Have you been to https://pdfbox.apache.org/building.html ? FWIW, I use NetBeans, and the key thing is to create a Maven project, with the POM including <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.pdfbox</groupId> <artifactId>pdfbox</artifactId> <version>1.8.7</version></dependency> Downloading of dependency jars and so on just happens automatically. >> Is there a fee based PDFBox Helpline anywhere on planet earth?
