Dear pdfbox developers/maintainers, Sorry that the previous email is incomplete...
For my project I need to highlight pdfs. The class org.apache.pdfbox.examples.util.PDFHighlighter in PDFBox java project is interesting to me. However, I could not call the class successfully after I build the project. The error I got was Error: Could not find or load main class org.apache.pdfbox.examples. util.PDFHighlighter The screenshot below shows the operation process: $mvn clean install -DskipTests project was successfully installed $cd pdfbox/examples/target/classes/org/apache/pdfbox/examples/util/ $ ls DrawPrintTextLocations.class PDFHighlighter.class PrintImageLocations.class PrintTextLocations.class ExtractTextByArea.class PDFMergerExample.class PrintTextColors.class RemoveAllText.class $ java PDFHighlighter Error: Could not find or load main class PDFHighlighter Then I tried: $cd pdfbox/examples/target/ $ls META-INF maven-status classes org generated-sources pdfbox-examples-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT-sources.jar generated-test-sources maven-archiver test-classesmaven-shared- archive-resources $unzip pdfbox-examples-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT-sources.jar $java -cp pdfbox-examples-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar org.apache.pdfbox.examples.util.PDFHighlighter Error: Could not find or load main class org.apache.pdfbox.examples.util.PDFHighlighter I can not figure out why the class could not be found. Could you please check? Best, Weili 2018-01-05 11:04 GMT+01:00 Weili Lin <[email protected]>: > Dear pdfbox developers/maintainers, > > For my project I need to highlight pdfs.
