This simple shell script loops through all .pdf files in your current working directory and exports metadata extracted with exiftool to a plaintext file of the same name as the original but with the extension changed from .pdf to .meta


Obviously you'll need to have exiftool downloaded and installed properly beforehand for this to work.
