pdftotext -htmlmeta output is missing metadata from PDF catalog. pdfinfo does
output all values known:

e.g. a pdfinfo output:

Title: Titel
Author: Word
Creator: WordToPDF 2.4 build 127
Producer: AFPL Ghostscript 8.54
CreationDate: Fri Jul 2 09:14:02 2007
ModDate: Fri Jul 2 09:14:02 2007
Tagged: no
Pages: 6
Encrypted: no
Page size: 595 x 842 pts (A4)
File size: 104664 bytes
Optimized: no
PDF version: 1.3

in contrast the meta section of the pdftotext -htmlmeta output:

<head>
<title>Titel</title>
<meta name="Author" content="Word"/>
<meta name="Creator" content="WordToPDF 2.4 build 127"/>
<meta name="Producer" content="AFPL Ghostscript 8.54"/>
<meta name="CreationDate" content=""/>
</head>
