You should either use a library or parse yourself the
PDFformat (specifications are available). I believe there are articles, here at CodeProject, covering both techniques. :)If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler. -- Alfonso the Wise, 13th Century King of Castile.
This is going on my arrogant assumptions. You may have a superb reason why I'm completely wrong. -- Iain Clarke

Why would MFC need to bother about PDF files?! MFC is just a wrapper around Windows API. On the other hand, PDF is one of the several hundred proprietary file formats which is not related in any way with Windows or Microsoft. I wouldn't ever expect MFC to make it easier for me to read PDF files. By the way, if you do a Google search as suggested by two of us, you'll find a whole lot of libraries/code/exmaples which deals with the subject of manipulating PDF files.
It was ever thus, the Neophiles will always rush out and get 'The Latest Thing' at a high price and with all the inherent faults - Dalek Dave.
