Hi,
thanks for reply, but I only have the string the pattern matches.
In PDF there is a table like this:
10110  Paperbox  3,49
30220N  Scissors    7,99
 

My pattern only matches first column. To get description and price, I need 
whole line.
So does PDFBox knows a command to get the actual line completly?
 
thx

You already have the line if you checked whether it matches.

Try tabula
