Tips for best results

  • Check metadata before sharing a file publicly, since author names and software details are often embedded.
  • Everything runs in your browser, so you can use PDF Metadata Viewer even on a slow connection once the page has loaded.

Limits to keep in mind

  • Files are processed in your browser, so very large files depend on your device memory and may be slow. The limit is 50 MB per file.
  • Password-protected PDFs may fail to open. Scanned PDFs are pictures of text, so text-extraction tools cannot read them without OCR.
