Not that this what you asked for, but there's a small python
application called stapler that can extract metadata. At the least,
maybe somehow it could be useful to look at the code? Then again, it's
built on a python library... so maybe there's nothing that will really
translate to elisp. I just ran into it as an alternative to pdftk and
thus it was fresh in my mind.
At github: https://github.com/fwenzel/stapler
Pertinent output from help:
,---
| $ stapler --help
| ...
| info: <inputfile> ... (no output needed)
| Display PDF metadata
| ...

Best regards,
John
