# Obtain Format Information

The KeyView format detection module (`kwad`) detects a file's format, and reports the information to your application.

You can obtain format information from a document by using the `GetDocFormatInfo` method. This method extracts the major format, file class, version, and document attributes, and populates the `DocFormatInfo` class. It returns the format information as a string. The format information that you can extract is listed in the header file `adinfo.h`.

For information about mapping detected formats to document readers, see File Formats and Document Readers.
