Instructions

1. Navigate to the directory: Open a terminal or command prompt and navigate to the maven-example directory.

   cd maven-example

2. Build and Run the Application: Run the following Maven command. This command will download dependencies, compile the code, and execute the application in one step.

   mvn clean install exec:java

3. Verify the Output: After the command finishes, you will see success messages in your console. The output files (JSON, Markdown, and an annotated PDF) will be generated in the maven-example/out directory.

   You can inspect the generated files to see the results of the PDF processing.
