Wordfast Pro cannot deal with all PDF's. This particular PDF could be protected by a password (yes, even if you can open it without being asked for a password), or it could contain text as bitmap graphics (scanned PDF) rather than as text etc.
Since Wordfast Pro cannot open that particular PDF, try with Wordfast Anywhere. If that doesn't work either, you will have to use something else, eg. FineReader.
