It is part of TL2010 /  but I tried


java -jar /usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-dist/scripts/pax/pax.jar filename.pdf



and it returned an error


Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org.pdfbox.cos.ICOSVisitor
	at java.lang.J9VMInternals.verifyImpl(Native Method)
	at java.lang.J9VMInternals.verify(J9VMInternals.java:72)

	at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:619)
	... 3 more

with no .pax created

Then I realized that I have no pdfbox.jar and got

pdfbox-app-1.4.0.jar

made symlink

/usr/share/java/pdfbox.jar -> pdfbox-app-1.4.0.jar



but still this error persists
