PDF Metadata not found?

Error ID: D917743853

The issue is that I cannot seem to find PDF metadata for ANY PDFs. In this case, it is a fairly popular one - The Road by Cormac McCarthy, but it could not find for Canticle for Leibowitz or Alas Babylon either. I did create exceptions in the firewall, both inbound and outbound, since there were none, and from what I've seen in the error log, there don't seem to be connection issues (I might have missed/misread some).

Could it be that there is no match for these in the database?

Thank you in advance!
  • retrieve metadata is principally intended for -- and will mostly work for -- academic papers. You'll generally have very little success with novels. For those, just find the ISBN and import using that.
  • Oh, thank you very much. I had little idea, I would've thought that novels or other types of publication are even easier to backtrack and ID than academic papers.

    Thank you for the ISBN suggestion as well. In all honesty, I hadn't read that part of the documentation and it's such an awesome little feature.

    Best!
