To do this with camel today you need a processor (if you don't want to
wait for the implementation ;). It should work with something like this:
from("file:///my-pdfs?noop=true&fileName=hello.pdf").process(new
Processor() {
public void process(Exchange exchange) throws
Exception {
GenericFile file =
exchange.getIn().getBody(GenericFile.class);
// do something with pdfbox here...
}
}).to("mock://out");

Yes and there is already an issue open to create a component for it:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-3552
It the mean time it is the easiest way to create a custom processor and
call pdfbox from there.

I raised a Jira for that, I will add the patch beginning of the next week.

The file component can read pdfs but it won´t interpret them. So you
would have to work with the bindary data.
Are you interested in extracting the text of the document are do you
want to just process the pdf as is?
