Searching words in PDF and Extracting it using iText in android

I recently downloaded iText 5.3.3 and i'm having a bit of a trouble using it.

What classes do i use to Search Words and Extract them from the PDF and display the text in Android?

I have seen the class PdfTextExtractor, i want to know in the class there is a method with a parameter of TextExtractionStrategy strategy. what TextExtractionStrategy are they referring to?

    public static String getTextFromPage(PdfReader reader,
                                 int pageNumber,
                                 TextExtractionStrategy strategy)
