如何将PDFBox.jar集成到Android Project中？

Question

I am aware that this question has been asked several times however I can not solve my problem. I am using pdfbox-1.8.7.jar. My intention is to read the content of a PDF document and output it in the console.

I put the pdfbox-1.8.7.jar into the libs folder. app/libs/pdfbox-1.8.7.jar . I am able to import the content of the jar, into my class.

import org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument;
import org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFTextStripper;

But if I run the application, an exception occurs:

FATAL EXCEPTION: main
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument

You have to use the Android Forked version of PDF Box

https://github.com/Birdbrain2/PdfBox-Android

It has the Gradle Build which will work on Android Studio
