About the PDF Metadata Editor
The PDF Metadata Editor shows and changes a PDF's title, author, subject and keywords, or clears all metadata. Metadata can reveal personal details such as the author's name or the program used, so removing it is sensible before sharing a file.
Metadata is information stored inside the file, not visible on the pages. The title often appears in the browser tab when the PDF is opened, and the author and keywords are used by file managers and search tools. This tool rewrites those fields and saves a new copy. Hidden information like text inside pages or embedded files is not removed by this tool.
How to use it
- Upload a PDF.
- Edit the title, author, subject and keywords.
