PDF Metadata Editor
Read and edit a PDF’s title, author, keywords and other hidden properties.
Every PDF carries information you never see while reading it: title, author, subject, keywords, the software that created it, timestamps. These fields show up in search results, document management systems and file properties — and sometimes reveal more than intended, like an employee’s name or an internal project code. This tool reads all the metadata of your PDF and lets you correct, complete or blank out each field before downloading the updated document. Both reading and writing happen entirely on your device: no file is ever uploaded to a server. It’s free, needs no account, and the visible content of your document is never altered.
How does it work?
- Drop your PDF: its current metadata appears instantly.
- Edit, complete or clear any field — title, author, subject, keywords…
- Click “Save”: the updated PDF downloads immediately.
Frequently asked questions
What is PDF metadata used for?
It describes the document to software: the title shows in your PDF reader’s tab and in some search results, while author and keywords feed document management systems and search indexes.
Can I wipe the metadata before sharing a document?
Yes — clear the fields you want and save. It’s a sensible habit before publishing, since these fields sometimes contain employee names or internal file paths.
Is the content of my document changed?
No. Only the metadata is updated: pages, text and images remain strictly identical to the original.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Reading and editing both happen on your own device, which makes the tool safe for confidential documents.
