They are tables because in lua objects are like tables. Doesn't

Many thanks for your reply, Hans.

I’m afraid I don’t know how to extract the real information, I only get:

   table: 0x324279a3400

then you're doing something wrong

\startluacode
    local main = lpdf.epdf.load("ar.pdf")
    context(tostring(main.Info.ModDate))
    context(tostring(main.Info.Title))
    local crap1 = tostring(main.Info.ModDate)
    local crap2 = tostring(main.Info.Title)
    context(crap1)
    context(crap2)
\stopluacode

works quite okay

BTW, how can I use "\enabledirectives[backend.date=2021.02.01]" in Lua?

grep is your friend ... (probably also in the cld manual)

directives.enable('backend.date=2021.02.01')

which of course doesn't mean that each one will work out as expected because timing matters
