DOCX metadata FAQs
What can I see in a DOCX file?
Read author/company, last-modified-by, subject/keywords, comments, revision info, and custom properties from DOCX files without changing their content.
Do you change or recompress my DOCX file?
No. The viewer only reads metadata from your DOCX file and shows it back—streams, pixels, and content stay untouched.
What if my DOCX file has little or no metadata?
Some DOCX files ship with minimal fields. We show everything present—if a tag is missing (like GPS or author), there simply isn't any data to display.
Can I verify attachments or previews in a DOCX?
Yes. If the DOCX contains embedded previews, cover art, fonts, or thumbnails, we surface those entries so you know what ships with the file.
Can I copy the DOCX metadata for documentation?
You can copy the on-screen results to include in tickets, audits, or delivery notes without modifying the original DOCX.
