How this service works
PDF metadata from a URL: page count (from page objects), PDF version, title, author, subject, creator/producer, creation and modification dates from the Info dictionary or XMP, encryption flag, and byte size. Reads the first 2 MB, so counts for very large PDFs may be partial (flagged). $0.01 per document.
Output
Returns a structured object containing: page count (may be partial for PDFs over 2 MB, flagged accordingly), PDF version string, Info dictionary fields (title, author, subject, creator, producer), creation and modification dates (from Info dictionary or XMP metadata), a boolean encryption flag, and the document's byte size.
Example use cases
Auditing uploaded contract PDFs
“I need to verify the metadata of this contract PDF at https://docs.example.com/contract-2024.pdf — specifically who authored it, when it was created and last modified, and whether it's encrypted.”
Checking page count before processing
“Before I process this document, can you check how many pages are in the PDF at https://files.example.com/annual-report.pdf and what its file size is?”
Verifying PDF provenance for compliance
“For compliance purposes, I need to know the creator, producer, creation date, and PDF version of the document at https://storage.example.com/submission.pdf — can you fetch that metadata?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://intel.rallylive.ca/dev/pdf-metaWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need lightweight, fast metadata inspection of a PDF without downloading or fully parsing the entire file. It is ideal for pre-processing pipelines that need page counts, authorship, or date info before deciding how to handle a document. Prefer it over full-document parsers when you only need document properties, not content.
Side effects
- URL is not reachable or returns a non-200 HTTP status
- URL does not point to a valid PDF file
- PDF is heavily encrypted and metadata cannot be read
- PDF exceeds 2 MB — page count may be partial and is flagged as such
- Malformed or corrupt PDF structure prevents parsing
- Network timeout when fetching the remote document
