Hi

Does anyone know of a tool that you can point at a bunch of PDFs (thousands) and get a CSV or other report on all the metadata fields which you see in Properties of PDF documents in Reader?

It's the Date fields I'm especially interested in, BEC seems to do that for M$ Office docs but not PDF

I know that the Created Date in PDF isn't infallible, but it can be useful

Cheers

Like a script looping through a directory listing or using exiftool with wildcards/in recursive mode?
