You can import a PDF into LC by using a player control instead of an image control.
I'm working on a small app that imports Jpegs, Gifs, PNGs, Tiffs, PSDs EPSs & PDFs and all work just fine, just use an image control for the first three, or a player control for the remaining four. Take a snapshot of the player control then pass it back to an image control to continue working with it. I'm sure you'll have some fun when you start playing with this, it really beats using PhotoShop or Gimp when you just need a quick image edit/resize or to add watermarks etc., and it's so much more satisfying. Just don't try loading any really big image with it!
