Frequently Asked Questions

What is PDF metadata?

PDF metadata is a set of data describing the document's properties. It can include information like the file's title, author, subject, keywords, the application used to create it (Producer), and the creation and modification dates.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. All processing is performed directly in your web browser using JavaScript. Your files never leave your computer, ensuring complete privacy and security.

Why is no metadata showing for my file?

It's possible the PDF you uploaded does not contain any metadata. This is common for files that have been processed or "cleaned" by certain software. The tool can only display information that is present in the file.
