Take a PDF where you know the title.
Then do this:
<?php echo "<PRE>", implode("", file("/path/to/your.pdf")), "</PRE>;?>
Now search for that title in your browser (control-F).
Figure out what PDF markers (like HTML tags, only not) are surrounding the
title.
Write PHP code to find those tags and extract the title from between them.
