$ java -jar target/tabula-1.0.5-jar-with-dependencies.jar --helpusage: tabula [-a <AREA>] [-b <DIRECTORY>] [-c <COLUMNS>] [-f <FORMAT>]       [-g] [-h] [-i] [-l] [-n] [-o <OUTFILE>] [-p <PAGES>] [-r] [-s       <PASSWORD>] [-t] [-u] [-v]Tabula helps you extract tables from PDFs -a,--area <AREA>           -a/--area = Portion of the page to analyze.                            Example: --area 269.875,12.75,790.5,561.                            Accepts top,left,bottom,right i.e. y1,x1,y2,x2                            where all values are in points relative to the                            top left corner. If all values are between                            0-100 (inclusive) and preceded by '%', input                            will be taken as % of actual height or width                            of the page. Example: --area %0,0,100,50. To                            specify multiple areas, -a option should be                            repeated. Default is entire page -b,--batch <DIRECTORY>     Convert all .pdfs in the provided directory. -c,--columns <COLUMNS>     X coordinates of column boundaries. Example                            --columns 10.1,20.2,30.3. If all values are                            between 0-100 (inclusive) and preceded by '%',                            input will be taken as % of actual width of                            the page. Example: --columns %25,50,80.6 -f,--format <FORMAT>       Output format: (CSV,TSV,JSON). Default: CSV -g,--guess                 Guess the portion of the page to analyze per                            page. -h,--help                  Print this help text. -i,--silent                Suppress all stderr output. -l,--lattice               Force PDF to be extracted using lattice-mode                            extraction (if there are ruling lines                            separating each cell, as in a PDF of an Excel                            spreadsheet) -n,--no-spreadsheet        [Deprecated in favor of -t/--stream] Force PDF                            not to be extracted using spreadsheet-style                            extraction (if there are no ruling lines                            separating each cell) -o,--outfile <OUTFILE>     Write output to <file> instead of STDOUT.                            Default: - -p,--pages <PAGES>         Comma separated list of ranges, or all.                            Examples: --pages 1-3,5-7, --pages 3 or                            --pages all. Default is --pages 1 -r,--spreadsheet           [Deprecated in favor of -l/--lattice] Force                            PDF to be extracted using spreadsheet-style                            extraction (if there are ruling lines                            separating each cell, as in a PDF of an Excel                            spreadsheet) -s,--password <PASSWORD>   Password to decrypt document.

(Only in                            spreadsheet mode.) -v,--version               Print version and exit.
