Description

While processing a bunch of PDFs off the web, I ran into a ClassNotFoundException thrown inside of PDFBox:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/bouncycastle/jce/provider/BouncyCastleProvider
at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument.openProtection(PDDocument.java:1092)

I believe the issue is that the PDFBox pom.xml declares the dependency on the missing BouncyCastleProvider jar as "optional".

<dependency>
<groupId>bouncycastle</groupId>
<artifactId>bcprov-jdk14</artifactId>
<version>136</version>
<optional>true</optional>
</dependency>

As explained in the Maven documentation, this means that Tika needs to explicitly include the jar:

http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-optional-and-excludes-dependencies.html

I see a few other optional dependencies in the PDFBox pom.xml, but perhaps the only one that's really critical is the above.
