No it doesn't.

I wonder what is the purpose of retrieving pdfs from a collection., Since even
after retrieval from zotero, (in rdf format) Its hard to search/open a needed
pdf file.

In any case if retrieval of a collection is important, one easy way to it would
be using pyzotero[1][2].

No, It only syncs one way i.e., references from zotero collection to
bib. Nothing more.
