Hi,
We use PDF tools like mutool, pdfinfo (from poppler) and exiftool in our
workflow (once the PDFs are created by ConTeXt).
But looks like we have hit upon some regression issue between 1.0.3 and
1.0.4 versions. Both pdfinfo (from poppler) and exiftool are able to read
PDFs created from 1.0.3 but have trouble reading PDFs created with 1.0.4.
Please see below logs for details.
Our 1.0.4 is from April-2021. We will try to upgrade to the latest 1.0.4
and try again.

hard to say without files but indeed updating might help
btw, there is (kind of old but still ok):
mtxrun --script pdf --info filename.pdf

Hans,
Thanks for the feedback. I will update to the latest version and run some
tests again.
mtxrun does not list the custom attributes unlike the others. From our
(limited) experience, mutool / poppler / exiftool all excel in different
areas. Dealing with different tools and keeping them upto date is
something we have internalized.
We did observe that mutool did not give errors with version 1.0.4 but
others did. In the ConTeXt development workflow, are there any tests with
such external tools (to possibly catch regression issues)?
We have experienced (reasonable) success with tools like diff-pdf
<https://vslavik.github.io/diff-pdf/> to catch regression in our workflow.
Thank you as always!
best regards,
Ramkumar

Hans,
To close this thread, both poppler and exiftool worked properly after I
upgraded to the latest version (details below). I will add a section in the
wiki about these tools, as they are mighty useful when working with PDFs.

Thanks again!
