Yes, finally I got solutions but PDF box updated api like 2.0.14 or 1.8.16 are not resolved with AEM 6.

AEM works with very lower versions of PDFBOX only. Might be this the limitation while you are working in AEM, so keep these things in mind.

Use pdfbox bundle's symbolic name in <Require-Bundle>... </Require-Bundle> in your pom.xml under maven- bundle-plugin
