What is PDF metadata?

Document properties stored inside the PDF, such as title, author, subject, keywords and the software that created it.

Why edit PDF metadata?

A good title improves how the PDF appears in search results and viewers; removing metadata protects your privacy.

Is old metadata completely removed?

Yes. The file is rewritten so earlier values aren’t left behind in the document.

Files are sent over an encrypted connection, processed on our servers and deleted automatically within an hour. You can also delete them immediately from the download screen. We never share or read your documents.
