Have a look at pdf2Data.

It converts pdf files to XML files based on a template. Templates are defined using selectors that allow the end-user to specify things like "select the table on the 2nd page" or "select the text written in this particular font" and so on.

Keep in mind, I am affiliated with iText so even though my knowledge of PDF is extensive, I may be considered biased towards iText products (seeing as I help develop them).
