Completely agree with Olaf. I have a vast amount of experience with Visual FoxPro and there is no built in tool to convert a PDF into text. You will need to use a third party software to accomplish this.
I have used this tool in the past and it seem to work well: http://www.pdftodocconvert

Surely not easy to parse a PDF document for the inner text. I'd use a third party tool, for example I found this via googling "pdf text extraction": http://www.a-pdf.com/text/ index.htm
