# Extract Format Information

You can extract format information from a document by using one of the `getDocFormatInfo` methods. These methods extract the major format, file class, version, and document attributes, and populate the `DocFormatInfo` class. They return the format information as a string. The format information that you can extract is listed in the header file `adinfo.h`.

For information on how to translate the extracted format information, see Translate Format Information.
