Hello fellow EPrinters,

I’ve been playing with the « Extract data » function to extract metadata from PDF files, and I’m not having much success. I’ve tried with different PDF files, both from official publishers or internally-created files. I’ve never been able to extract more than the title, and only from a few files.

Did any of you have more success with this function? Is there a way to improve extraction? Or to disable this function altogether if it just doesn’t work?

Thank you!
