About Edit PDF Metadata

Every PDF carries hidden document properties: a title, an author, a subject, keywords and the software that created it. They show up in browser tabs, in search results and in file managers, and they can reveal names or tools you did not mean to share. View the current values, change them, or clear everything in one click, then save a new copy. Editing happens in your browser and the file is never uploaded.
