Is this an extension to additional filetypes but using the same tool you mentioned in your post in December 2012?

yes...i'd like to modify and add some feature to Pdf metadata tool. And i can integrate both tools. the new tool will support MS Office and pdf metadata. if i can, i will add Open office (LibreOffice) metadatas.But program only logically extract metadatas for now.

I haven't had the time yet to look at your application but would your tool also have a feature that, within the output of one of the fields data in the program, identify whether a particular file is password protected or secured?

It would be useful to have a tool that you could point at a folder containing say 100 documents and leave it to run and extract the data automatically.

I suggest you look at ExifTool and see if you can do better. Don't mind the name; it works with a large list of files, including MS Office and PDF.
