Rafiki,

I am seeking an immediate PDF-to-Database solution.


Urgency demands on a public, community-supported list are never taken well

.

In fairness, my inquiry is not about dbasea in general, but
exclusively PDF driven

No, your underlying question is REALLY about design, because what you're
asking for doesn't readily exist, just like a flying car
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnF2yua4KIw>.

Once you have the record injection working in (i.e. Java) without PDFBOX,
then your specific, PDFBOX-specific questions become relevant.  Otherwise,
you may have luck looking on Freelancer, Fiverr, Craigslist, or via a
Bounty.

This may seem strange that PDFBOX doesn't offer such a thing, as some
form-based technologies (such as InfoPath) support direct database
bindings... but you'll also notice that these solutions tend to be
expensive, proprietary, closed source, and very platform specific.
