In addition to the excellent replies you got, you can use Smile - that's a free AppleScript environment - like in:
find text [ some string here ] in [ some path to a pdf file here ]
Best,
Emmanuel
The latest version of Smile is available at http://satimage.fr/software/en/downloads/downloads_nextsmile.html
