Exiftool 11.39
OS: Win10 64bits

Hi,
thanks for Exifools.

When I execute:

Code Select Expand

exiftool -s SRC.pdf
I get

Code Select Expand

ExifTool Version Number         : 11.39
File Name                       : SRC.pdf
Directory                       : the directory of SRC.pdf

PDF Version                     : 1.7
Linearized                      : No
    1 directories scanned
    1 image files read

If I execute pdfinfo of xpdf-tools it can print
The 'Info' dictionary contains the following values:

              title
              subject
              keywords
              author
              creator
              producer
              creation date
              modification date

       In addition, the following information is printed:

              tagged (yes/no)
              form (AcroForm / static XFA / dynamic XFA / none)
              page count
              encrypted flag (yes/no)
              print and copy permissions (if encrypted)
              page size and rotation
              file size
              linearized (yes/no)
              PDF version
              metadata (only if requested)

So why ExifTool does NOT produce:

Author
Nb of pages
precise bytes size

Thanks

Thanks

I'd suggest using
exiftool -G1 -s -a SRC.pdf
to make sure you're getting the full output of all the tags in the file as well as their location (see FAQ #3).

I'm not sure why you're not getting some of the info.  It might be specific to that pdf, as I get PageCount, as well as Author if it exists when testing 11.39 on some PDFs.

If you want precise byte size, you need to specify the -n (printConv) option or its hashtag shortcut.
exiftool -n -FileSize SRC.pdf
or
exiftool -Filesize# SRC.pdf
