Wrong metadata from Retrieve Metadata for PDF

Using 5.0.35.1 in Win10, I get wrong metadata from a pdf, repeatedly. I dragged a pdf from Windows Explorer to the collection label (currently displayed collection) in the left pane, and then right-clicked it and selected Retrieve Metadata for PDF. This created a parent for the pdf, with Google Scholar metadata for a different article which I had imported about a month ago. I tried this again, and got the same result. (The pdf is from here: https://www.healtheffects.org/system/files/GBD-MAPS-SpecRep21-India-revised_0.pdf but the retrieved metadata corresponds to this: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1352231013001386
(I assume this has nothing to do with the beta PDF recognizer, since I only use normal automatic updates of current release)
  • Given that the new PDF retrieve system is going to be in the next version, it's not worth troubleshooting this.
    There were always occasional false positives, so this isn't something fundamental going wrong.
