I think the problem comes from the fact that while using jlink the classpath does not exist and it need to be loaded by an another way that the classpath one.

 

the path should look like something like :

// Path path = Paths.get(URI.create("jrt:/pdfbox/org/apache/resources/afm/police.afm"));

modules here is managed by moditect (maven plugin to help creating module-info descriptor) and contain all dependancies of the project
