You're trying to track down who is using a particular Windows DLL? Try SysInternal's Process Explorer. Start logging before you do your PDF stuff, then stop logging, and use ProcExplorer's filtering abilities to search just for this dll name. That should show you how the DLL is used in the system, and by what app(s).
