It looks like the answer is yes. If you go to a package's canonical page on CRAN, its SystemRequirements: should be listed. Since Java (>= 7.0) is on there, it's required for the package to work.

Yes, you need to install java the install 'rJava' from R studio, then install 'tabulizerjars' !

FAQ: How do I mark a solution?

If your question has been answered, don't forget to mark the solution! How do I mark a solution? Find the reply you want to mark as the solution and look for the row of small gray icons at the bottom of that reply. Click the one that looks like a box with a checkmark in it: [image] Hovering over the mark solution button shows the label, "Select if this reply solves the problem". If you don't see the mark solution button, try clicking the three dots button ( ••• ) to expand the full set of options. When a solution is chosen, the icon turns green and the hover label changes to: "Unselect if this reply no longer solves the problem". Success! [solution_reply_author] …
