Extracting non-text information from pdf

Hi pdfbox users,
I am trying to extract non-text information (whether box is checked or not)
from thousands of pdf files that uses the exactly same fixed format and
would like to know whether pdfbox would be a viable option.  Any advice
would be greatly appreciated!

Best,
Huiyun Kim

Sure, look at the printFields example in the source download. If you 
have further questions, please mention what version you are using 
(hopefully 2.0 RC3).
