[iText-questions] How to extract data

Hello,
 
I have a PDF document with ~900 pages. The document lists in a long table the personal data of people. My job is it now to extract the first and last name into a structured document (e.g. XML, Excel, csv ...).
 
I already managed to open the document via iText. After studying the Documentation I do not understand how to search in the document for the table and then process each table cell. Can somebody send me a hint or a link to the documenation how to find and process the table?
 
Thx,
 
Bernhard
