Extracting PDF information

[puforee]

I am looking for help, using VBS, to extract meta data from a PDF file. Can anyone help?

What type of metadata?

Do you currently have a 'manual' method of getting at this data?

The PDF items I need to harvest are the PDF file properties. When you right click the PDF file and select properties you see several tabs.....General, PDF, Security, and Summary. I am expressly interested in the PDF tab. On the PDF TAB there isa Title field, and author field, a subject field, and Keywords field.

I would like to pull this information with VBS and then use it in the rest of my VBS script.
Thanks,

objMyForm.Initialize ("DEMO-SDK-84232865-00514228")         'Initialize object by serial number of the license
If objMyForm.openFile("Pdffilename.pdf") = False Then
    ErrorMessage = objMyForm.GetLastError()
End If

msgbox objMyForm.documentInfo("Keywords")

What do I need the licens for? I have Acrobat Pro Extended Version 9.4.1 on my computer...it is company licensed. I am not sure how to get the informaiton about the license.

Also "CutePDF.Document" you showed??? What if I want to extract the properties for a file named 21-00-PD-001.PDF...do I have to use .Document?

Thanks,
