PdfTextExtractor.getTextFromPage(reader, pagenumber) will do a much better job of extracting the text. It uses a pretty advanced text extraction strategy (LocationTextExtractionStrategy) that properly handles (in most cases) text positioning, etc...
If you still want to use the SimpleTextExtractionStrategy, the preferred way of doing so is with PdfTextExtractor, but passing in a different strategy.
