USING THE ICECITE TOOL TO CONVERT FROM PDF TO TXT

1. Need Java 8 for compiling and probably also for running Icecite
<code>
export JAVA_HOME=/opt/java8/
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
</code>

2. Get and compile icecite, following the instructions at https://github.com/ckorzen/icecite
<code>
git clone https://github.com/ckorzen/icecite.git --recursive
cd icecite
git pull --recurse-submodules
cd pdf-parent/
mvn install
</code>

3. Run icecite, general instructions at https://github.com/ckorzen/icecite
<code>
cd ../../
cd icecite/pdf-cli
java -jar target/pdf-cli-*-jar-with-dependencies.jar [options] <input> [<output>]
</code>
Examples:
	greenstone@bedrock:~/icecite/pdf-cli$ java -jar target/pdf-cli-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar --format txt --feature words ~/Downloads/A9-access-best-practices.pdf ~/Desktop/iceciteconverted1.txt

	greenstone@bedrock:~/icecite/pdf-cli$ java -jar target/pdf-cli-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar --format txt --feature lines ~/Downloads/A9-access-best-practices.pdf ~/Desktop/iceciteconverted2.txt

	greenstone@bedrock:~/icecite/pdf-cli$ java -jar target/pdf-cli-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar --format txt --feature paragraphs ~/Downloads/A9-access-best-practices.pdf ~/Desktop/iceciteconverted3.txt

(Also tried with input file pdf01.pdf from the Reports collection)


4. If you see the exception

Then:
a. Obtain bouncycastle (encryption?) jar files from https://www.bouncycastle.org/latest_releases.html

Download both jar files listed under the "Provider" column for row "JDK 1.5 - JDK 1.8" (not sure that both are necessary) and put them in icecite/pdf-cli folder (for example)

b. Then see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15930782/call-java-jar-myfile-jar-with-additional-classpath-option
for how to run a java programme when you have multiple jar files on classpath, as you can't run java with both -cp and -jar.
