i haven't used rjava yet, I think I installed it on linux
for testing but no real usage, but this message
appears to come from jvm probably because you
specified an aboslute path. You can try this from
command line,




$ ls ../geo/dayte*
../geo/dayte.class

mmarchywka at phlulap01 /cygdrive/c/d/phluant/duphus
$ java ../geo/dayte
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: ///geo/dayte
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: ...geo.dayte
        at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source)
        at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
        at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(Unknown Source)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
        at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
Could not find the main class: ../geo/dayte.  Program will exit.


you want to search for the classpath and set that up then
refernce the class name not the path ( the class loader will follow
the path looking for it ). 
Not sure how you do that in rjava under 'dohs but
if you search for that term is should be apparent.
And of course 'dohs and pdf aren't always friendly
for automated work so get something like cygwin and
reduce pdf's to text etc.
