Jukka Zitting resolved PDFBOX-687.
----------------------------------

         Assignee: Jukka Zitting
    Fix Version/s: 1.2.0
       Resolution: Fixed

I added a simple pdfbox-app component that simply bundles all the default dependencies and runs the new dispatcher class o.a.pdfbox.PDFBox when invoked.

To play with this, do the following:

    mvn clean install
    java -jar app/target/pdfbox-app-1.2.0-SNAPSHOT.jar ...

The first argument to the runnable jar the name of one of our command line utilities (ExtractText, PDFDebugger, PrintPDF, etc.) and any remaining arguments are passed on to the selected utility.

> It would be nice to have a standalone jar package that contains all the dependencies needed to run PDFBox. Then you wouldn't need to explicitly collect all the required dependencies and set up the classpath in order to run the command line utilities, as a simple "java -jar pdfbox-app-1.2.0.jar" would be enough.
