You would need the Developer Kit specific to the product version, i.e. the 7.2 FDK and program your needs in C or C+. Since there are so many possible things that would need fixing, you may want to consider using FrameScript as more easily proto-typing solution. See: http://www.framescript.com/

Have you also tried exporting RTF from Acrobat, importing that into unstructured FM (cleaning up as required) and then using FM's conversion table approach to get a structured document?
