About the PDF Utilities Service

The PDF Utilities service can convert between PDF and XDP file formats, set and retrieve PDF document properties, and determine the save mode of PDF documents.

The PDF Utilities service is useful in processes to determine certain properties about a PDF document, perform document conversions, and manipulate XMP metadata. For example, before converting a PDF document to another format, it is useful to inspect its properties in order to determine which service operation to invoke for the conversion.

You can accomplish these tasks using the PDF Utilities service:

•	Convert PDF documents to XDP documents. For information, see Converting PDF Documents to XDP Documents.

•	Convert XDP documents to PDF documents. For information, see Converting XDP Documents to PDF Documents.

•	Retrieve PDF document properties. For information, see Retrieving PDF Document Properties.

•	Saving a PDF document and optimizing it for fast web viewing. For information, see Saving a PDF Document.
