Edit PDF metadata

PDFs store data you don't see, like your user name or the app that created them. Check it before sending a document.

Your files are processed directly in your browser. They are never uploaded to a server.

How to edit PDF metadata

  1. 1

    Add your PDF.

  2. 2

    Change the fields you want or turn on “Remove all metadata”.

  3. 3

    Save and download the PDF.

About this tool

The title you set is what many PDF readers and browsers show on the tab, and it may appear in search engines if you publish the PDF.

Saving also removes XMP metadata, which usually duplicates this information.

Everything is processed in your browser; the document is never uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

Does the PDF content change?

No. Only the document properties are modified.

Why is my name shown as the author?

Word and other apps add it automatically from your account name.
