when dealing with files, is it possible to write or read any file extensions e.g. .docx, .pdf e.t.c.?

Yes, you can read or write the bytes of any file, Java doesn't care what the extension is. But you will need extra libraries to interpret the contents of MS office files, PDFs etc. It's easy to find them, just Google.
