Basically, I need a way to read a JDF file, so I can see the information it contains.

According to this link, JDF is based on XML, so I figure it would be pretty easy to read. But I can't find any information about how to do that.

I'm using C# and .NET 4.0.

JDF is XML, but it's not very friendly XML. The JDF specification doc alone is over 1,200 pages! I suggest taking a look at FluentJDF. They just went open source a few weeks ago. The company I work for just bought some training from them and I sat through a 4 hour how-to meeting yesterday. Their solution for working with JDF is a programmers dream.
