    Resolved [RESOLVED] Reading metadata from a file

    Hi

    What's the easiest way to access a given file's metadata?

    I've got a bunch of pdf files and I need to read some of the PDF Information fields - title, subject and producer - and some of the general file fields - specifically the tags field.

    I've done some googling but can't find anything I can use - I was hoping it was going to be as simple as File.GetCreationTime(filename)

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks!

    Thanks - oddly enough I'd just found that after I posted and am trying it now!

    EDIT: That works well - thanks!
