File information
metadata
To find out information about the file associated with the
version of the
document you are looking at:
- use the button on the
menu, or
- click the file icon next to the version number.
What is shown depends on what kind of file it is.
The name of the file as originally uploaded is shown in the headline and its URLs underneath.
Summary information
For all files you'll then see:
- what kind of file it is (its format - which you can also find this out by
hovering over the icon for the file next to the
button)
- the suffix (a.k.a. "extension") usually used for this kind of file
(which can occasionally be different from the filename)
- the number of pages
- the size of the file on disk
- who added it (the person who uploaded it, not necessarily the
original author) and when (these can also be found alongside the
button).
Word counts
Then for text files the number of words is shown (including any in
headers and footers etc), both for the file as a whole and each page
individually. Note: you can also get word counts for groups of files
with an aggregate total using .
EXIF data
For images containing so-called EXIF data, that is shown. This
typically includes camera settings, when the picture was taken as well
as the dimensions of the picture.
Other metadata
Finally, any other "metadata" that can be extracted is shown. This
may contain the software and version used to make the file, the
author, creation date, protection information and so on.
