What Metadata Do PDFs Contain?
PDF files store a rich information dictionary that can betray your privacy. This includes the Author's Name (often pulled directly from your computer's OS login), the specific application and OS used to create the document, exact creation and modification timestamps, and hidden XMP streams that can store extensive tracking data from Adobe software.
