About Edit PDF metadata

Every PDF stores a title, author, subject and keywords. Edit these fields to show the right name in browser tabs and file properties, or wipe them all for privacy before sharing. Old documents often reveal the author's name or software without anyone noticing.

How to use Edit PDF metadata

  1. Choose your PDF, or drag and drop it here. You can try the sample first.
  2. Make your changes and check them in the preview.
  3. Download the new PDF. Your file never leaves your device.
