'''Extra Columns (PDF files only)'''
* This feature allows you to display extra information (also called Meta Data) extracted from each PDF into the list view of the file stored in this field.
* The following information can be extracted and displayed:

* In the "Extra Columns" field type the desired column heading (separated by commas), followed by two colons, following by the fields codes from above (separated by commas)
