I think (Josh please correct me) that the availability of the data in the final PDF file has more to do with how the PDF was created. If you just use a PDF printer to create the file your data isn't available, but my understanding was that if you used a "PDF form" on in the input side then the data is still in those form fields in the binary file and thus extractable. Otherwise I don't see what the excitement would be about with PDF workflows in Livecycle.
