You can look at ingest-attachment plugin which can extract text and metadata from your PDF docs.

I also wants to index text on images.

I used Tesseract OCR but it is indexing only images(not pdf images).  
I used tika jar but it is indexing only pdf text.

Is there any way that i can parse pdf images/text or both.
