PDF Metadata Editor
Every PDF carries hidden properties: a title, author, subject, keywords and the software that created it. Google often shows the PDF title in search results and browsers show it in the tab, so a missing or wrong title ("Microsoft Word - final_v3.docx") looks unprofessional. This editor shows the current properties and page details, lets you change them, and can clear them for privacy.
How to use PDF Metadata Editor
- Choose the PDF. Its current properties and details appear.
- Edit the title, author, subject, keywords and other fields, or click Clear all fields.
- Tick the option to remove the XMP metadata block if you want the old values gone completely.
- Click Save PDF.
When it comes in handy
- Giving PDFs on your website clear titles for search results.
- Removing your name or company details before sharing a file.
- Checking which software produced a PDF.
Frequently asked questions
- Does the PDF title help SEO?
- Google uses the title property (or the first heading) as the search result title for PDFs, so a descriptive title helps people click. The file name and the text inside matter too.
- What is XMP metadata?
- A second, XML copy of the properties plus editing history, added by many apps. Some viewers read the title from it, so remove it when you want old values gone.
- Are my files uploaded to your server?
- No. The PDF is opened and processed by your own browser, so it never leaves your device. That also means very large files depend on your device's memory.
