Look into the ActionScript object
TextSnapshot.
There was also an older post for doing a search and select of text with it.

Subject: [Swftools-common] pdf2swf text
converting to TextFields
All,
I recently ran head first into some of the
short-comings of FlashPaper so I started using PDF2SWF instead.
Two of
the things I had to give up were the ability to cut and paste text and to
search text. If I am correct (I could be wrong), PDF2SWF converts each
character to curves, thus there is no "text" in the resulting SWF file.
I had read in a (really) old post that someone said that they were
looking into adding the text-to-text conversion, but they needed a
Actionscript coder to help out.
I am now offering that
assistance.
