About the PDF Metadata Editor
Every PDF carries hidden document properties such as title, author and the software that created it. The title is shown in browser tabs and search results, so setting it correctly matters for documents you publish online.
This editor reads the current metadata, lets you change or clear any field, and shows the page count and page sizes. Clear the fields to remove personal information before sharing a file.

Frequently asked questions
Why does PDF metadata matter for SEO?
Search engines may use the PDF title as the result headline. A descriptive title and subject help your document rank and get clicked.
How do I remove metadata?
Clear the fields you want to remove and save. Empty fields are written as blank values so the old information no longer appears.
Does editing metadata change the content?
No. Only the document information dictionary is updated; pages, text and images stay exactly the same.
