TIKA - Extracting PDF

Given below is the program to extract content and metadata from a PDF.
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));
      }
   }
}
Save the above code as PdfParse.java, and compile it from the command prompt by using the following commands:
javac PdfParse.java
java PdfParse
