Free Online PDF Information and Analysis Tool

Every PDF holds more information than you see on screen. Behind the pages sit a page count, a file size, a PDF version, page dimensions, author and title details, creation dates and the text itself. Our free PDF Information & Analysis Tool brings all of that together, so you can inspect any PDF in a few seconds.

Add a file once and switch between seven tools: PDF Page Count, PDF Metadata Viewer, PDF File Size Checker, PDF Page Size Checker, PDF Version Checker, PDF Text Extractor and PDF Document Properties Viewer. Everything runs inside your browser, so your document is never uploaded to a server.

What You Can Do With This PDF Tool

PDF Page Count

Find out how many pages a PDF has before you print it, send it or upload it. This is handy when a form, assignment or portal limits the number of pages, and when you need to estimate printing costs.

PDF Metadata Viewer

See the hidden details stored inside a PDF: title, author, subject, keywords, creator application, producer and the creation and modification dates. Check them before you share a file, so you know exactly what information travels with it.

PDF File Size Checker

Get the exact size of your PDF in bytes, kilobytes and megabytes, along with the average size per page. The tool also shows whether the file fits under common limits such as 1 MB, 5 MB or 25 MB, which is useful for email attachments and online application forms.

PDF Page Size Checker

Read the dimensions of every page in points, millimetres and inches. The tool names the matching paper size, such as A4, A3, A5, Letter or Legal, and tells you whether each page is portrait or landscape. It also flags PDFs that mix several page sizes.

PDF Version Checker

Learn which PDF version your file was saved as, for example 1.4 or 1.7. Some older systems, archives and government portals only accept certain versions, so this quick check can save you a rejected upload.

PDF Text Extractor

Pull the text out of a PDF and copy it, or download it as a plain .txt file. You can add page markers to keep track of where each part came from. It works on PDFs that contain real text, not on scans that are only pictures.

PDF Document Properties Viewer

Get one complete report that combines the file name, size, page count, versions, page size, author details, dates, form fields, digital signatures and encryption flag. Copy the whole report with a single click.

How to Check PDF Information Online

Follow these steps for any of the seven tools:

  1. Open the tab you need above the tool, such as Page Count, Metadata Viewer or Text Extractor.
  2. Drop your PDF into the upload box, or click it to browse your device.
  3. Wait a moment while the file is analyzed. Progress is shown for longer documents.
  4. Read the result, then switch tabs to see other details about the same file without uploading it again.
  5. Copy the results or download the extracted text if you need them elsewhere.

What Is PDF Metadata?

PDF metadata is information about the document rather than its visible content. It usually includes the title, author, subject, keywords, the program that created the file, the program that produced the PDF, and the dates it was created and last changed. Metadata helps search tools and document managers organize files, but it can also reveal names, software and timelines you may not want to share. Checking it first is a good habit.

Standard PDF Page Sizes

PDF page sizes are measured in points, where 72 points equal one inch. These are the sizes you will meet most often:

  • A4. 210 x 297 mm, about 595 x 842 points. The everyday standard in most countries.
  • Letter. 8.5 x 11 inches, 612 x 792 points. Common in the United States and Canada.
  • Legal. 8.5 x 14 inches, 612 x 1008 points. Used for contracts and legal forms.
  • A3. 297 x 420 mm. Posters, drawings and large tables.
  • A5. 148 x 210 mm. Booklets, flyers and notebooks.

The PDF format has grown over the years, and each version adds features.

  • PDF 1.3. Added digital signatures and JavaScript support.
