PDF Metadata Editor | Title, Author and Keywords
Edit PDF document metadata such as title, author, subject, creator, producer, and keywords before archiving or sharing.
Edit PDF Document Metadata
Update PDF metadata fields such as title, author, subject, creator, producer, and keywords so file details better match the document.
Metadata Is Not Full Privacy Cleaning
Changing visible metadata may not remove hidden content, comments, embedded files, revision traces, or personal data inside the PDF. Review sensitive files separately.
When Metadata Editing Helps
Use it before archiving documents, sharing reports, organizing files, correcting author fields, or preparing PDFs for search and document management systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
What metadata does a PDF contain by default?
PDFs typically contain title, author, subject, keywords, creator application, creation date, and modification date. Some also contain custom properties.
Why should I remove author metadata before sharing?
Author metadata may contain your real name, username, or company name which you may not want visible to external recipients.
Does editing metadata change the PDF content?
No. Metadata is stored separately from the document content. Editing it does not affect the text, images, or layout of the PDF.
