If you have familiarity with Scala you can use Tika. Tika is a wrapper around PDFBox. In case you want to use it in Databricks I suggest you to go through this blog and Git repo. For python based codes you may want to use PyPDF2 as a pandas UDF in Spark.

This project provides a custom data source for the Apache Spark that allows you to read PDF files into the Spark DataFrame. And here notebook with example of usage.
df = spark.read.format("pdf") \
.option("imageType", "BINARY") \
.option("resolution", "200") \
.option("pagePerPartition", "2") \
.option("reader", "pdfBox") \
.load("path to the pdf file(s)")
df.show()
