Save and Download
Click Save and Download. A new PDF with your updated metadata is saved to your device.
Control the Hidden Details in Your PDF
Every PDF carries metadata, small bits of information like the title, author, and the software that made it. You usually never see it, but it shows up in file properties, search results, and document systems, and it can reveal more than you intend, like an old author name or a draft title.
This editor lets you read and change all of it. Open a PDF and the current title, author, subject, keywords, creator, and producer fill into a simple form. Edit what you want, set clean keywords, or fix a title that was left as the original file name.
When you would rather share a clean file, one switch clears every field at once. The tool then rebuilds the PDF with your changes and hands it back. It all runs in the browser, so the document and its details never leave your computer.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about PDF metadata.
What is PDF metadata?
Metadata is information about the file rather than its visible content, such as the title, author, subject, keywords, and the program that created it. It appears in file properties and helps systems organize and search documents.
Which fields can I edit?
You can edit the title, author, subject, keywords, creator, and producer. The original creation date and page count are shown for reference, and the modification date is updated when you save.
How do I clear all metadata?
Turn on the clear all metadata switch before saving. Every field is emptied, which is useful for removing identifying details before you share a file.
Does editing metadata change the content?
No. Only the metadata is changed. The pages, text, and images stay exactly as they were.
Why are some fields empty when I open a PDF?
Not every PDF has all the fields filled in. Many files only set a title or producer, so the rest show as blank. You can fill them in and save.
Is this PDF metadata editor free?
Yes, it is completely free with no signup and no limits. Everything runs in your browser, so your file stays on your device.
