Extract actual /Table /TD /TR markup info?

[Tim Allison <ta...@apache.org>]

All,
  I have some pdfs with actual /Table /TD /TR markup.

  How much effort would it be to extend PDFTextStripper to add, e.g.
startTable(), endTable(), startTD(), endTD(), etc...?

  If I do have time to work on this (uncertain at this point), would
there be interest in putting this into PDFBox...or am I missing where
it already exists?

       Cheers,

                       Tim

There is certainly a need for it. Related questions are regularly asked 
on SO.

I don't know how much effort is needed... I did work a bit on the 
structure tree, but in an abstract way so that I've never really 
understood the meaning.
