How can I check from a PDF file, when the corresponding MS Word file was originally created? I want to know when a pdf was originally typed in MS word and also when it was converted into a pdf. I suspect the document has been backdated.

The PDF format supports non printing comments. So whatever created the PDF, probably put the date inside the document as a comment.. Edit the PDF using a text editor. I use XEmacs, but that is not for everyone. The Linux gedit editor can also do this. Notepad might work. Make sure the PDF opens correctly when you are done. Change the file creation date to whatever you want. The Linux touch command has this capability. You can get both commands by installing the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) from the Windows store.

PDF documents can be cumbersome to edit, especially when you need to change the text or sign a form. However, working with PDFs is made beyond-easy and highly productive with the right tool.
