This is not tivial in pure Matlab, because PDFs can be stored in an encrypted and compressed way.
Of course there are other tools, which can open the PDF, e.g. Acrobat Reader. This can be contacted via ActiveX to reply the number of pages. You find the corresponding methods and a lot of other related tools, when you search in the net: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=count+number+of+pages+PDF
