Comments
File size, File Extension, Creation Date, Last Modified Date, and Name can be extracted from many other file types as well in the “Get Details Of” actions.
I didn’t include that set in every action here on my website for sake of avoiding repetition – but it’s worth knowing you can “Get” these details as well.
