> The current pdfbox version extracts all needed data from a pdf document and uses lucene to create an index for the lucene search engine. 
> To avoid the dependency on lucene pdfbox should only extract the data which can be used to create a lucene index outside from pdfbox. That would decrase the number of external jars and woukld eliminate an other potential issue because of changing apis like those coming with lucene 3.0. 
> I've created 2 new classes (one for the extraction and one as example how to use that feature) based on existing code and attached it as patch.
> WDYT?
> If that patch will be added to the trunk the existing code will be removed including both lucene jars.
