Ben,
The Tcl/tk functionality in VMD can help you achieve this. What you need to do is to load the DCD and PSF into the program using "mol load". And loop through the entire trajectory, update the frame in selections ($selection frame $i) and make the judgement based on your criteria. Whenever it matches, use "writepdb $selection" to write a pdf file.
