What is PDF Metadata?

PDF Metadata is the "hidden" information embedded within your PDF file. It contains details about the document such as the Title, Author, Subject, Keywords, and Creation Date. This information is used by search engines, PDF readers, and operating systems to index and display your file correctly.

  • **Title:** Displayed in the window title bar of PDF viewers.
  • **Author:** Identifies who created the document.
  • **Keywords:** Helps in searching for the document within a database.

Why Edit PDF Metadata?

Editing metadata is crucial for professionalism and privacy. Sometimes, a PDF converted from Word might still contain the original author's name or an old title like "Document1". Cleaning this up ensures your file looks polished before sharing.

Privacy and Security

Metadata can sometimes reveal sensitive information, such as the names of previous contributors or the software versions used. Our tool allows you to view and scrub this hidden data securely. All processing is done locally in your browser, so your files remain private.
