Ranjan,

imbw, tho i do believe such info being contained within a .pdf file
would be determined by the pdf file composer.

if a pdf composer does include such info, you can search source of
pdf file for _viewable_ text with;

  hexdump -C filename.pdf|less
or
  hexdump -C filename.pdf>save2textfile

if pdf file is 'notable', you could try a web search to see if there
has been any write ups.

much luck.
