PDF Metadata Viewer

PDFs carry hidden document information — who created them, with what software, and when. This tool reads and displays that metadata without modifying your file.

Files are processed in your browser and are not uploaded to our server.

How to Use This Tool

  1. Choose a PDF file.
  2. Its metadata is read and displayed immediately — nothing to click.

Why Use ToolVigo's PDF Metadata Viewer

  • Shows title, author, subject, keywords, creator and producer software.
  • Shows creation and modification dates as stored in the file.
  • Flags whether the file is encrypted.

Privacy & Security

This tool runs entirely in your browser using a PDF engine built for ToolVigo. Your PDF is never uploaded to our servers — opening, editing and saving all happen on your device.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do some fields say "(none)"?

Not every PDF has every metadata field filled in — it depends on the software that created the file.

Can I edit this metadata here?

This tool is read-only. Use the PDF Metadata Remover to strip all metadata from a copy of the file.
