Can I View Metadata Of Pdf From Command Line On Linux?
As a beginner to Linux commands, I've been using calibre for library info but want command-line options. Any simple tools for retrieving author, title, tags from an ebook file directly?

You can use command-line tools like 'exiftool' or 'pdfinfo' to extract metadata from PDF files. Exiftool is especially versatile, handling a wide range of tags. For quick checks, 'pdfinfo' from the poppler-utils package gives you basics like author and page count. On a different note, I was reading a PDF copy of 'The Alpha King's Mind-Reading Maid' the other day, and using 'pdfinfo' confirmed it was a DRM-free file I could transfer to my e-reader. The story itself has an intriguing setup where the maid’s secret ability creates constant, tense intrigue in the royal court.

Hey, if you like poking around files the same way I do when I'm binge-reading liner notes, Linux makes PDF metadata super accessible from the command line.
For a quick peek I usually start with pdfinfo (part of poppler-utils). It gives a neat summary: Title, Author, Creator, Producer, CreationDate, ModDate, Pages, PDF version, page size, and more. Example: pdfinfo 'mydoc.pdf'. If you want to filter it down: pdfinfo 'mydoc.pdf' | grep -Ei '^(Title|Author|Producer|CreationDate|Pages)'.
If you want everything — the XMP, custom metadata and more — I love exiftool (package name libimage-exiftool-perl on Debian/Ubuntu). exiftool -a -u -g1 'mydoc.pdf' dumps lots of readable tags organized by group. For raw XMP in case you want to copy-paste XML, strings 'mydoc.pdf' | sed -n '//,/<\/x:xmpmeta>/p' can pull out the chunk (works for many PDFs but not guaranteed for all).
Other useful tools: pdftk 'mydoc.pdf' dump_data prints InfoKey/InfoValue pairs and is handy for scripts, and mutool (from mupdf) or qpdf can inspect internals or check encryption. If a file is password-protected you can often pass the password (pdfinfo has -upw/-opw). I often combine these in small scripts to audit batches of PDFs — it’s oddly satisfying. Play around and you’ll find the combo that fits your workflow best.

On quiet evenings I like to treat PDFs like little puzzles, and the command line is where I open them up. Start with pdfinfo for the essentials — type pdfinfo 'document.pdf' and you’ll see Title, Author, Creator, Producer, CreationDate, ModDate, page count and sizes. It’s fast and great when you just need surface data.
If you want depth, exiftool is the better microscope: exiftool -a -u -g1 'document.pdf' prints detailed XMP, PDF/Info and other embedded tags, often revealing software versions and custom fields. For scripts that need the XMP XML, pull it out with strings 'document.pdf' | sed -n '//,/<\/x:xmpmeta>/p' and feed that into an XML parser. When metadata is embedded as PDF objects, pdftk 'document.pdf' dump_data shows InfoKey/InfoValue lines which are easy to parse; mutool from the MuPDF suite can also inspect structure and report whether the file is encrypted.
A few practical notes from tinkering: encrypted PDFs may require passwords (pdfinfo supports -upw/-opw), some viewers write odd Creator/Producer strings (Ghostscript, LibreOffice), and timestamps can be in UTC or local formats so watch for timezone quirks. If the PDF lives online, curl -sL URL > /tmp/doc.pdf then run pdfinfo on that temporary file. It’s a small ritual, but I enjoy seeing the breadcrumbs left by different editors and tools.

Short checklist style for when I need metadata fast: install poppler-utils and exiftool (apt). Then use pdfinfo 'file.pdf' for a quick summary and exiftool -a -u -g1 'file.pdf' for full metadata including XMP. If you need the raw XMP XML: strings 'file.pdf' | sed -n '//,/<\/x:xmpmeta>/p'. For simple InfoKey pairs try pdftk 'file.pdf' dump_data. To change tags inline: exiftool -Title='New' -Author='Me' -overwrite_original 'file.pdf'.
Don’t forget encrypted PDFs may need passwords, and if you’re processing many files write a small shell loop to automate it. That combo covers almost every situation I run into.

I usually keep things pragmatic and to the point: install poppler-utils and exiftool, then use pdfinfo and exiftool to view metadata. Pdfinfo 'file.pdf' gives a quick human-readable summary (Pages, Title, Author, Producer, CreationDate). Exiftool -a -u -g1 'file.pdf' will show everything including XMP, metadata groups, and embedded fields.
If you need to extract the raw XMP block for programmatic parsing try: strings 'file.pdf' | sed -n '//,/<\/x:xmpmeta>/p'. For batch inspection, loop over files: for f in *.pdf; do pdfinfo "$f" | grep -Ei '^(Title|Author|Pages)'; done. To edit metadata from the command line, exiftool -Title='New Title' -Author='Me' 'file.pdf' will create a new file backup by default; add -overwrite_original to skip backups. For older tools, pdftk 'file.pdf' dump_data is useful for simple InfoKey/InfoValue output. That’s my go-to set for quick audits and scripted fixes.
If you need to extract the raw XMP block for programmatic parsing try: strings 'file.pdf' | sed -n '/

“Begging already?” His voice was cruel, his fingers circling faster, pushing her to the edge. “I'm not even nearly done with you yet.”
She squeezed her eyes shut, the recruit’s muffled cries and the whip’s crack filling her ears, amplifying her need. Chase’s fingers were relentless, stroking her clit, and dipping inside just enough to tease.
“Please,” she whimpered, louder now, her hands gripping his shoulders. “I’m sorry. I won’t lie again. I’ll be good. Please, let me cum.”
He chuckled, his lips brushing her neck. “Not yet, baby. Fight it.”

How can I view metadata of pdf without installing software?
4 Answers2025-09-02 16:25:35
I love poking around files, so here’s a friendly walk-through that doesn’t require installing anything new.
On Windows you can often get basic metadata without extra tools: right-click the PDF file in File Explorer, choose 'Properties' and open the 'Details' tab. You’ll see fields like Title, Author, and sometimes Creation and Modification dates. On macOS, select the file in Finder and hit 'Get Info' (or press ⌘I) for similar details. Both of these show filesystem-level and embedded metadata that many PDFs include.
If you want more embedded info, open the PDF in Firefox (its built-in viewer is great for this). Click the small 'i' icon or look for 'Document Properties' in the viewer toolbar; it exposes XMP/metadata like Producer, Creator, and custom fields. Alternatively, you can upload to Google Drive and open the details pane — it shows upload/owner info and sometimes core metadata. Quick heads-up: I don’t like uploading personal docs to third-party sites, so for sensitive PDFs I stick to local methods like Finder/File Explorer or opening the file in a plain text editor and searching for '/Title' or '' blocks to read raw metadata. If you see XML tags, that’s the XMP packet and it’s human-readable, which I find oddly satisfying.</div></div><div class="qa-item" data-v-b7353ae2><h3 data-v-b7353ae2><a href="/qa/command-line-tool-converts-chm-pdf-linux" class="qa-item-title" data-v-b7353ae2>

Install it from your distro (on Debian/Ubuntu: sudo apt install chm2pdf). Then the basic command is stupidly straightforward: chm2pdf input.chm output.pdf. It often does a fine job preserving the table of contents and most images.
If you want nicer layout control or better handling of tricky HTML inside the CHM, I keep Calibre's command-line tool on hand. Install Calibre (sudo apt install calibre) and run: ebook-convert input.chm output.pdf. That one is surprisingly good at reflowing text, embedding fonts, and you can tweak paper size, margins or metadata with flags (for example, --paper-size or --margin-top). For TOC-heavy manuals it often looks cleaner than a raw conversion.
Finally, if either of those trips up because the CHM contains odd scripts or has embedded resources, I extract the HTML with libchm utilities (install libchm-bin) and then convert the HTML directory to PDF using wkhtmltopdf or even a batch ebook-convert on the extracted HTML. That two-step route gives you maximum control. I’ve saved some ancient programming manuals this way and it’s been a lifesaver when a straight conversion produced broken images or missing pages.</div></div><div class="qa-item" data-v-b7353ae2><h3 data-v-b7353ae2><a href="/qa/view-metadata-pdf-python-pypdf2" class="qa-item-title" data-v-b7353ae2>

If you just want to peek at metadata with PyPDF2, the modern, straightforward route is to use PdfReader and inspect the .metadata attribute. Here's the tiny script I usually toss into a REPL or a small utility file:
from PyPDF2 import PdfReader
reader = PdfReader('example.pdf')
if reader.is_encrypted:
try:
reader.decrypt('') # try empty password
except Exception:
raise RuntimeError('PDF is encrypted and requires a password')
meta = reader.metadata # returns a dictionary-like object
print(meta)
That .metadata often contains keys like '/Title', '/Author', '/Creator', '/Producer', '/CreationDate' and '/ModDate'. Sometimes it's None or sparse — many PDFs don't bother to set all fields. I also keep a tiny helper to normalize keys and parse the odd CreationDate format (it looks like "D:20201231235959Z00'00'") into a Python datetime when I need to display a friendlier timestamp. If you're on an older PyPDF2 version you'll see PdfFileReader and reader.getDocumentInfo() instead; the idea is the same.
If you want pretty output, convert meta to a plain dict and iterate key/value pairs, or write them to JSON after sanitizing dates. It’s a tiny ritual I enjoy before archivism or just poking through downloaded manuals.</div></div><div class="qa-item" data-v-b7353ae2><h3 data-v-b7353ae2><a href="/qa/tools-let-view-metadata-pdf-free-online" class="qa-item-title" data-v-b7353ae2>

On Windows 10, the simplest place to start is File Explorer: right‑click the PDF, pick 'Properties', then open the 'Details' tab. You’ll see basic fields like Title, Author, and sometimes Keywords — but Windows only shows what the file embeds in standard metadata fields, so a lot of PDFs look blank here even if they contain extra info.
If you want the metadata that most PDF readers expose, open the file in 'Adobe Acrobat Reader DC' (or 'PDF-XChange Editor', or 'SumatraPDF') and press Ctrl+D or go to File → Properties. That view tends to show more PDF-specific fields (like Producer, PDF version, and custom XMP data). For power users who need everything, I use 'ExifTool' (free): exiftool file.pdf shows all embedded metadata. It’s faster for batches: exiftool *.pdf dumps metadata for every file in a folder. Try a couple of these depending on how deep you need to go — and if you’re prepping files to share, remember to scrub metadata first if privacy matters.</div></div><div class="qa-item" data-v-b7353ae2><h3 data-v-b7353ae2><a href="/qa/view-metadata-pdf-using-adobe-acrobat" class="qa-item-title" data-v-b7353ae2>

If you have Acrobat Pro, I go further: Tools > Protect & Standardize > Remove Hidden Information (or search for 'Remove Hidden Information' in Tools). That previews hidden metadata, attached data, and comments that ordinary users might miss. For structural or compliance checks I open Tools > Print Production > Preflight to inspect PDF/A, PDF/X, font embedding, and more. Small tip: editing the basic fields is done right in Document Properties (change Title/Author/Keywords), but for full cleanup or forensic detail, Preflight and Remove Hidden Information are where I live — they surface the stuff regular viewers won't show.</div></div><div class="qa-item" data-v-b7353ae2><h3 data-v-b7353ae2><a href="/qa/view-metadata-pdf-created-microsoft-word" class="qa-item-title" data-v-b7353ae2>

If you want forensic-level detail, use tools like exiftool (exiftool myfile.pdf) or Poppler’s pdfinfo (pdfinfo myfile.pdf) on the command line; they dump XMP and embedded metadata. Also double-check Windows File Explorer (right-click → Properties → Details) or macOS Finder (Get Info) for quick looks. If privacy is the issue, run Word’s Document Inspector (File → Info → Check for Issues → Inspect Document) before exporting or use Acrobat’s Remove Hidden Information / Sanitize features.

First, inspect. I usually run simple tools to see what’s actually inside: open the PDF’s Properties in a viewer (File > Properties), run pdfinfo (poppler) or exiftool to get a full readout (exiftool file.pdf), and also search the raw file for XML XMP packets (open in a text editor and look for '<x:xmpmeta' or '/Metadata'). Those tell you about the Info dictionary (Title, Author, CreationDate) and any XMP metadata. Don’t forget attachments, embedded fonts, or hidden form data — these won’t always show in basic viewers.
Next, remove. If I’m on a machine with ExifTool, I run: exiftool -all= -overwrite_original file.pdf which nukes most metadata fields (ExifTool often makes a backup unless you use -overwrite_original). For a GUI I’ll use a proper PDF editor: in Acrobat Pro use Tools > Redact > Remove Hidden Information or Tools > Sanitize Document (that removes XMP, hidden layers, comments, metadata and more). As a safety habit I always create a copy, check again with exiftool/pdfinfo, and scan the new file for any leftover strings of sensitive text. And I avoid online uploaders for sensitive docs unless I’m sure they’re trustworthy.</div></div><div class="qa-item" data-v-b7353ae2><h3 data-v-b7353ae2><a href="/qa/view-metadata-pdf-macos-preview-app" class="qa-item-title" data-v-b7353ae2>
Where can I view metadata of pdf on macOS Preview app?

When the Inspector pops up you'll usually see an 'i' tab or a 'More Info' section where Preview displays metadata like Title, Author, Subject/Keywords (if the file has them), PDF producer/creator, PDF version, page size and sometimes creation/modification dates. If nothing shows up there, it often means the PDF simply doesn't have embedded metadata. Preview's metadata viewer is handy for a quick peek, but it's a viewer-first tool: editing fields is limited or inconsistent across macOS versions.
If you need to dig deeper or edit stuff, I switch to Finder's Get Info for basic tags, or use Terminal: mdls /path/to/file.pdf reveals Spotlight metadata, and 'exiftool' shows practically everything. For full edit control I go to a dedicated app like 'Adobe Acrobat' or a metadata editor. Preview's Inspector gets you most of what you need at a glance, though, and for quick checks it's my go-to.</div></div></div></div><div class="qad-block" data-v-222bd693><h2 class="qad-title" data-v-222bd693>Related Searches</h2><div class="qas" data-v-e6977e9e data-v-222bd693><a href="/qa/t_view-metadata-of-pdf" class="qas-item" data-v-e6977e9e><h3 class="qas-item-text" data-v-e6977e9e>View Metadata Of Pdf</h3></a><a href="/qa/t_pdf-linux-reader" class="qas-item" data-v-e6977e9e><h3 class="qas-item-text" data-v-e6977e9e>Pdf Linux Reader</h3></a><a href="/qa/t_pdf-readers-linux" class="qas-item" data-v-e6977e9e><h3 class="qas-item-text" data-v-e6977e9e>Pdf Readers Linux</h3></a><a href="/qa/t_change-pdf-metadata-online" class="qas-item" data-v-e6977e9e><h3 class="qas-item-text" data-v-e6977e9e>Change Pdf Metadata Online</h3></a><a href="/qa/t_extract-pdf-text" class="qas-item" data-v-e6977e9e><h3 class="qas-item-text" data-v-e6977e9e>Extract Pdf Text</h3></a><a href="/qa/t_extract-text-from-pdf-document" class="qas-item" data-v-e6977e9e><h3 class="qas-item-text" data-v-e6977e9e>Extract Text From Pdf Document</h3></a><a href="/qa/t_extract-text-from-pdfs" class="qas-item" data-v-e6977e9e><h3 class="qas-item-text" data-v-e6977e9e>Extract Text From Pdfs</h3></a><a href="/qa/t_pdf-extract-text-python" class="qas-item" data-v-e6977e9e><h3 class="qas-item-text" data-v-e6977e9e>Pdf Extract Text Python</h3></a></div></div></div><div class="qad-right" data-v-222bd693><div class="qad-right-section" data-v-222bd693><div class="list" data-v-4c1b4076 data-v-222bd693><div class="list-title" data-v-4c1b4076>Popular Question</div><div class="list-list" data-v-4c1b4076><div class="list-item" data-v-4c1b4076><div class="right-item-index" data-v-4c1b4076>01</div><span data-v-4c1b4076><a href="/qa/laurie-r-king-book-starts-mary-russell-mystery-series" class="right-item-title" data-v-4c1b4076>Which Laurie R.

It gives a neat summary: Title, Author, Creator, Producer, CreationDate, ModDate, Pages, PDF version, page size, and more. Example: pdfinfo 'mydoc.pdf'.

For raw XMP in case you want to copy-paste XML, strings 'mydoc.pdf' | sed -n '\u002F\u003Cx:xmpmeta\u003E\u002F,\u002F\u003C\\\u002Fx:xmpmeta\u003E\u002Fp' can pull out the chunk (works for many PDFs but not guaranteed for all).\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EOther useful tools: pdftk 'mydoc.pdf' dump_data prints InfoKey\u002FInfoValue pairs and is handy for scripts, and mutool (from mupdf) or qpdf can inspect internals or check encryption. If a file is password-protected you can often pass the password (pdfinfo has -upw\u002F-opw). I often combine these in small scripts to audit batches of PDFs — it’s oddly satisfying.

You’ll see fields like Title, Author, and sometimes Creation and Modification dates. On macOS, select the file in Finder and hit 'Get Info' (or press ⌘I) for similar details. Both of these show filesystem-level and embedded metadata that many PDFs include.\n\nIf you want more embedded info, open the PDF in Firefox (its built-in viewer is great for this). Click the small 'i' icon or look for 'Document Properties' in the viewer toolbar; it exposes XMP\u002Fmetadata like Producer, Creator, and custom fields. Alternatively, you can upload to Google Drive and open the details pane — it shows upload\u002Fowner info and sometimes core metadata. Quick heads-up: I don’t like uploading personal docs to third-party sites, so for sensitive PDFs I stick to local methods like Finder\u002FFile Explorer or opening the file in a plain text editor and searching for '\u002FTitle' or '\u003Cxmp\u003E' blocks to read raw metadata.

Install it from your distro (on Debian\u002FUbuntu: sudo apt install chm2pdf). Then the basic command is stupidly straightforward: chm2pdf input.chm output.pdf. It often does a fine job preserving the table of contents and most images.\n\nIf you want nicer layout control or better handling of tricky HTML inside the CHM, I keep Calibre's command-line tool on hand. Install Calibre (sudo apt install calibre) and run: ebook-convert input.chm output.pdf. That one is surprisingly good at reflowing text, embedding fonts, and you can tweak paper size, margins or metadata with flags (for example, --paper-size or --margin-top). For TOC-heavy manuals it often looks cleaner than a raw conversion.\n\nFinally, if either of those trips up because the CHM contains odd scripts or has embedded resources, I extract the HTML with libchm utilities (install libchm-bin) and then convert the HTML directory to PDF using wkhtmltopdf or even a batch ebook-convert on the extracted HTML. That two-step route gives you maximum control.

Sometimes it's None or sparse — many PDFs don't bother to set all fields.

I usually run simple tools to see what’s actually inside: open the PDF’s Properties in a viewer (File \u003E Properties), run pdfinfo (poppler) or exiftool to get a full readout (exiftool file.pdf), and also search the raw file for XML XMP packets (open in a text editor and look for '\u003Cx:xmpmeta' or '\u002FMetadata'). Those tell you about the Info dictionary (Title, Author, CreationDate) and any XMP metadata. Don’t forget attachments, embedded fonts, or hidden form data — these won’t always show in basic viewers.\n\nNext, remove. If I’m on a machine with ExifTool, I run: exiftool -all= -overwrite_original file.pdf which nukes most metadata fields (ExifTool often makes a backup unless you use -overwrite_original). For a GUI I’ll use a proper PDF editor: in Acrobat Pro use Tools \u003E Redact \u003E Remove Hidden Information or Tools \u003E Sanitize Document (that removes XMP, hidden layers, comments, metadata and more).

My Stepdaughter: She Moans 'Daddy' While Her Boyfriend Listens","plotDetail":"After her shower, Vivi slipped into a thin, silky nightdress that barely reached the tops of her thighs. The delicate fabric clung to her still-damp skin, outlining the gentle swell of her breasts and the soft curve of her hips. \n\n\n\nShe padded barefoot into the dimly lit living room, searching for her phone charger. When she bent over the coffee table, the short hem rode up dangerously high. For one agonizing moment, the smooth, pale skin of her rounded backside was completely revealed, along with the shadowed, intimate valley between her thighs—no underwear to shield her most private area from view. \n\n\n\nMarcus sat frozen on the sofa, the television’s glow flickering across his tense face. His throat tightened.\n\n\n\n\"This is wrong,\" he told himself, even as his gaze traced every forbidden inch of her exposed skin.\n\n\n\n She was his stepdaughter.He had raised her, protected her. Yet here she was, innocently offering a glimpse of something so pure and tempting that it sent a dark wave of heat straight through his body. \n\n\n\nGuilt clawed at his chest, but desire burned hotter, stirring memories he had tried for years to bury. \n\n\n\nHis fingers gripped the armrest until his knuckles whitened. Why did she have to be so beautiful, so unknowingly seductive? The conflict tore at him—part of him wanted to look away, to be the respectable father figure he was supposed to be, while another, deeper part ached to reach out and claim what he knew he could never have. \n\n\n\nVivi straightened casually, as if unaware of the storm she had unleashed, and wandered back toward her room, her hips swaying gently.\n\n\n\nMarcus remained seated long after she disappeared, his heart hammering and his body painfully aroused. \n\n\n\nThat night, alone in his bed, he couldn’t escape the image.\n\n\n\n His hand moved slowly under the sheets as he relived every detail—the softness of her skin, the delicate pink flush, the way the light had kissed her most secret places. Shame and lust battled inside him with every stroke. He whispered her name into the darkness like a prayer and a curse, torn between self-loathing and overwhelming need. \n\n\n\nHis release brought only temporary relief, leaving him more tormented than before, knowing the line he was dangerously close to crossing.\n\n\n\nA few nights later, faint sounds drifted through the wall—soft, breathy moans that grew increasingly urgent. Vivi was on a late-night call with her boyfriend. The conversation had turned intimate, her voice trembling with pleasure. \n\n\n\n“Yes… like that…” she gasped. Then, in a broken moan that shattered Marcus’s restraint, she uttered the word: “Daddy… please…” \n\n\n\nThe sound hit him like lightning. Heart pounding with a mix of shock, jealousy, and raw hunger, Marcus pushed open her bedroom door without knocking. \n\n\n\nVivi lay on her bed, nightdress bunched around her waist, one hand still between her parted thighs. Her cheeks were flushed, eyes wide with shock as she met his intense gaze. She froze, unable to hide the obvious evidence of her arousal—the way her body trembled, the faint sheen on her skin. \n\n\n\nMarcus stood in the doorway, tall and tense, breathing ragged. Years of suppressed longing burned in his eyes. \n\n\n\n“Your boyfriend can’t satisfy you, can he?” he said, his voice low and rough with barely controlled desire. He stepped inside and closed the door behind him. “Let Daddy show you what you really need.”","recommendBookId":"31001428307"}],"tagDetail":{"seoQATag":{},"relatedBookVos":[],"recommendQATag":[],"popularQuestion":[],"relatedQuestion":[],"relatedQATag":[],"dramaPlotAds":[]},"tagList":[],"tagListPages":0,"tagKeywords":[],"homeRecommendTag":{}},"compare":{"books":[]},"CommentManage":{"commentList":[],"total":0,"pageNo":1,"pageSize":20,"bookList":[],"unreadCount":0,"commentDetail":null,"replyList":[],"replyTotal":0},"route":{"name":"QaDetail","path":"\u002Fqa\u002Fview-metadata-pdf-command-line-linux","hash":"","query":{},"params":{"questionFormat":"view-metadata-pdf-command-line-linux"},"fullPath":"\u002Fqa\u002Fview-metadata-pdf-command-line-linux","meta":{},"from":{"name":null,"path":"\u002F","hash":"","query":{},"params":{},"fullPath":"\u002F","meta":{}}}};(function(){var s;(s=document.currentScript||document.scripts[document.scripts.length-1]).parentNode.removeChild(s);}());</script><script src="https://www.goodnovel.com/pcdist/manifest.24a911e9e007e0adf1fa.js" defer></script><script src="https://www.goodnovel.com/pcdist/vendor.344b389fee5f9e458bd2.js" defer></script><script src="https://www.goodnovel.com/pcdist/app.e721ba656dd92c3de42e.js" defer></script>
