Frequently asked questions
Does every PDF contain author details?
No. Metadata fields are optional and may be empty or inaccurate. The viewer shows the values available in the document.
Can metadata prove who created a document?
No. These fields can be changed. They are not proof of authorship or authenticity.
Does viewing metadata change my PDF?
No. This tool reads the source and returns a text result without writing a modified document.
Does it list all hidden data in a PDF?
No. It shows common document information fields, not a full forensic inspection of attachments, page content, or XMP records.
