(a) yes
(b) yes
very basic example code:
StringWriter out = new StringWriter();
PDDocument doc = PDDocument.load(file);
nbPages = doc.getNumberOfPages();
PDFTextStripper stripper = new PDFTextStripper();
stripper.setStartPage(1);
stripper.setEndPage(1);
stripper.writeText(doc, out);
txt = out.toString().trim();
out.close();
doc.close();
Please check the sample code included in pdfbox for better examples
Best regards
