Well, I did a CFC to do all the work of a PDF; it isn't that hard.
First, you need to get the iText jar 2installed"
An example of say, get the number of pages within a PDF is below...
pdfObject = createObject("java","com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfReader");
vcPDFfile= vcPDFfile; // full path to the PDF
pdfObject.init(vcPDFfile);
iNumberOfPages = pdfObject.getNumberOfPages();
if you dump iNumberOfPages you will get the number of pages in vcPDFfile.
Obviously iText is far far more advanced but you get the idea...
Any more help, let me know.

Wow, iText looks to be far more powerful than what cfdocument has
implemented. Has anyone created a friendlier "translation layer" for
those of us without Java experience?
