## About

Open a PDF to see what it is made of: how many pages there are, the exact size of each one, the format version and the document information the producer wrote, such as the title and the author.


## Questions

### What are the point and millimetre figures?

A PDF measures its pages in points, where seventy-two points make an inch. Both units are shown because print shops usually ask in millimetres while the file stores points.

### Why is some document information missing?

The title, author and subject are optional fields. Plenty of producers leave them empty or fill in only a producer name, and this page shows what is actually there rather than guessing.

### Can it read an encrypted PDF?

A password-protected PDF cannot be parsed without the password, so the page says so instead of showing an empty report. Removing the password with the owner's permission has to happen in a reader that can open it.
