下麵給出的程序是用來提取PDF文件內容和元數據。

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.IOException;

import org.apache.tika.exception.TikaException;
import org.apache.tika.metadata.Metadata;
import org.apache.tika.parser.ParseContext;
import org.apache.tika.parser.pdf.PDFParser;
import org.apache.tika.sax.BodyContentHandler;

import org.xml.sax.SAXException;

public class PdfParse {

   public static void main(final String[] args) throws IOException,TikaException {

      BodyContentHandler handler = new BodyContentHandler();
      Metadata metadata = new Metadata();
      FileInputStream inputstream = new FileInputStream(new File("Example.pdf"));
      ParseContext pcontext = new ParseContext();
      
      //parsing the document using PDF parser
      PDFParser pdfparser = new PDFParser(); 
      pdfparser.parse(inputstream, handler, metadata,pcontext);
      
      //getting the content of the document
      System.out.println("Contents of the PDF :" + handler.toString());
      
      //getting metadata of the document
      System.out.println("Metadata of the PDF:");
      String[] metadataNames = metadata.names();
      
      for(String name : metadataNames) {
         System.out.println(name+ " : " + metadata.get(name));
      }
   }
}

保存上述代碼保存為PdfParse.java，並通過使用下麵的命令從命令提示編譯：

javac PdfParse.java
java PdfParse

下麵給出的是Example.pdf文件的快照：

PDF文檔具有以下屬性：

執行上述程序後，會得到如下的輸出

輸出:

Contents of the PDF:

Apache Tika is a framework for content type detection and content extraction 
which was designed by Apache software foundation. It detects and extracts metadata 
and structured text content from different types of documents such as spreadsheets, 
text documents, images or PDFs including audio or video input formats to certain extent.
