About this tool
PDF Metadata Viewer reads the document-information dictionary inside a PDF: title, author, subject, keywords, creator, producer, and the page count. It is useful for cataloguing documents, verifying authorship fields before publishing, or satisfying curiosity about where a file came from.
Fields that were never set simply show as empty — the tool reports honestly rather than guessing. Inspection is fully local; your PDF never leaves the browser.
How to use
- Upload a PDF file.
- The tool reads its metadata instantly.
- Review title, author, subject, keywords, creator, producer, and page count.
- Copy any values you need.
