Portable Document Format, short pdf, is (in general) an open file format. You can find information about this here.
So if you can open the file at all depends on if it is encrypted or not (see usage restriction). Another point is that the text you are reading in a pdf-reader is not stored in the pdf like in any other ASCII-file. There are formatstrings, imagelinks (and data) and other things included WITHIN your text. Afaik (short for "as far as i know"), there are no "preprogrammed" pdf-reader available in LabVIEW, but maybe someone else knows a little more about that.
So if there isn't one, you can only write a pdf-parser on your own......

hope this helps,
Norbert
