About

About the PDF Info Viewer

Reads a PDF's page count, file size, page dimensions, PDF version and metadata like title, author and keywords.

Anyone handling a document from an unknown source uses it to quickly check its page count and creation details before opening it fully, while developers use it to inspect what metadata a PDF-generating tool actually wrote. It's one of many free PDF tools on Toolapt, and like every tool here, it's free to use with no sign-up and no limit on how many times you run it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to common questions about the PDF Info Viewer.

What does PDF Info Viewer do?

It reads a PDF's page count, file size, page dimensions, PDF version and metadata (title, author, subject, keywords, creator, producer, dates) and displays them all in one place.

Is PDF Info Viewer free to use?

Yes. It's free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on how many files you inspect.

Is my file safe when I use this tool?

Yes. Your PDF is read entirely in your browser using a small PDF-rendering library loaded from this site — it's never uploaded to a server.

Why do some metadata fields show a dash?

A dash means that field simply wasn't set when the PDF was created — not every PDF-generating tool fills in fields like Subject or Keywords.

Does it edit or change the PDF?

No. This tool only reads and displays information — to change a PDF's title, author, subject or keywords, use the PDF Metadata Editor instead.

What page size is shown?

The dimensions of the first page, in points — most standard documents use the same size throughout, though some PDFs mix page sizes.

Can I use PDF Info Viewer on my phone?

Yes. The page is fully responsive and works on mobile, tablet and desktop browsers alike.

Does PDF Info Viewer have any limitations?

It reports dimensions for the first page only, and doesn't detect password protection or a document's embedded fonts.
