Original code is located here:
  https://www.pdflabs.com/docs/install-pdftk-on-redhat-or-centos/

including recipe to compile from source.

ATM there is no "ready to install" package directly for Centos 7,
but try the Centos /RHEL 6 package from there before
doing the full build circus (requires installed libgcj).
