Applications that create PDFs files, such as Adobe Photoshop or Acrobat, are able to store information within a PDF file that they can use when opening or editing the file. This information can only be used by the application which created the file and is not needed to display a PDF file. For most cases we recommend deleting this data as it will have no effect on the use of the PDF file.

This data is solely useful to the program that originally produced the PDF and is not required for viewing purposes.
