This tool reads and displays a PDF's hidden metadata - title, author, creation date, software used to create it, and more - without modifying the file in any way. It's useful for quickly checking a document's origin/properties, verifying metadata was set correctly, or investigating a file before deciding whether to trust or use it.
Frequently asked questions
No - this tool only reads and displays existing metadata; it never modifies the PDF.
Typical fields include title, author, subject, keywords, creation and modification dates, and the software/producer that generated the PDF, when that information is present in the file.
Use the Metadata Editor tool, which lets you edit title, author, subject, and keywords directly.
