Robert,
I haven't worked with any DLL's so what I'm looking for is complete code for using the Adobe IFilter DLL to extract all the text from a PDF file.
I also don't know how to import a COM DLL... I didn't even know you could.

It is called "Component -> Import ActiveX Control"
Simply open the DLL and see what happens.
The CoGlobal.Create call is the start of all access.
It creates a COM object. Call the methods and the application will be started in the background to satisfy your calls.
What the methods really do should be documented. If not experiment.
This works for any COM object.

I had tried that but it didn't do anything.

Here's the other 500 points.
Normally you simply import the COM DLL into Delphi and get a _TLB.pas file which allows access.
