tabula-java allow specifying multiple areas by asheeshrana · Pull Request #213 · tabulapdf/tabula-java
The orginal method is there as is... I didn't modify it. I simply added another method.
Additionally based on the comment at the top of the file...
// TODO: this class should probably be called "PageArea" or something like that
it seemed to me that Page.java is the place where all area calculations should be housed and hence I decided the add that method.
I can anyways move the calculations out of Page.java... but just want a quick confirmation from you again if possible please.
