pdfbox 3.0 Loader issue

I am using pdfbox 3.0 to load a PDF as follows (Eclipse IDE, java.runtime.version=17.0.4.1+1):

File pdfFile = new File("C:\\Users\SchroeT\\myPDF.pdf");
System.out.println("\n\nFile: " + pdfFile);
PDDocument doc = Loader.loadPDF(pdfFile);

I added the following jar files to the Modulepath under "Libraries" in Eclipse: fontbox-3.0.0-alpha3.jar pdfbox-3.0.0-alpha3.jar pdfbox-debugger-3.0.0-alpha3.jar pdfbox-tools-3.0.0-alpha3.jar preflight-3.0.0-alpha3.jar xmpbox-3.0.0-alpha3.jar

The following output points to a “ClassNotFoundException”

Please help

Console output in Eclipse:

I found a solution: I had to delete the module-info.java file. After that, I ran into further issues (could not find PDAnnotationMarkup). I removed all jar files mentioned above and only added the bigger pdfbox-app-3.0.0-alpha3.jar.
