below code worked for me with "PDF.PdfCtrl.5" or "PDF.PdfCtrl.6" ids.

String pdfId = getKeyValue( "PDF );
site = new OleControlSite(frame, SWT.NONE, result );
auto = new OleAutomation(site);
------------------
// this is really a costly approach as it searches entire registry
public String getKeyValue( String type ) {
 String pdfProgId = null;
 String [] extensions = new String [1024];
 
 // Use the character encoding for the default locale
 TCHAR lpName = new TCHAR (0, 1024);
 int [] lpcName = new int [] {lpName.length ()};
 FILETIME ft = new FILETIME ();
 int dwIndex = 0, count = 0;
 while (OS.RegEnumKeyEx (OS.HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, dwIndex, lpName, lpcName, 
                           null, null, null, ft) != 
OS.ERROR_NO_MORE_ITEMS) {
    String extension = lpName.toString (0, lpcName [0]);
    lpcName [0] = lpName.length ();
    if ( extension.indexOf( type ) != -1 ) {
       pdfProgId = extension;
	break;
    }
    dwIndex++;
 }
		
 return pdfProgId;
}
