Would you consider supporting PDF metadata? Not only defaults (creator, author, producer) but also custom properties.

Yes, support for PDFs is in the plans, but still not finished.

As for the custom properties, it would be helpful if you could upload a sample, stating what would you expect to see.

With this I could maybe get rid of Zotero.. if it's searchable and then later on also get's a function to export by bibtex or so this would be huge..

Hello, have you got some news regarding this ? (this feature should be great, as docx support and common MS others)

Hi, any update on this? PDF metadata would be amazing - it would make managing pdf libraries much much easier.

@kormose thanks for the ping!
I have committed the support for simple metadata from PDF Document Information Dictionary. It would be nice if people could test before the app is released.

@Piefje01 have you attached the PDF? I can't see any link in the post above for some reason.
