View and edit your PDF's metadata

Every PDF carries hidden document information — title, author, subject, keywords and the creator/producer software. This tool reads those fields, lets you change them, and saves a new PDF. It all runs in your browser; your file is never uploaded.

Why metadata matters

  • Searchability & organisation — a proper title and keywords help find the file later.
  • Professional polish — the title often shows in the browser tab and search results.
  • Privacy — exported PDFs can leak your name or software in the author/creator fields. Clearing them before sharing is good practice.

How it works

The fields are read from the document's Info dictionary and written back with an open-source library (pdf-lib). Empty a field and save to remove that value. The page content is never touched — only the document information changes.

Note: PDFs can also carry XMP metadata, a separate, advanced layer. This tool edits the standard Info dictionary, which covers the fields most people need.

Private by default

Reading and writing happens locally on your device — nothing is sent to a server, so even sensitive documents stay private. It works offline.

Frequently asked questions

Is my PDF uploaded to edit its metadata?

No. The metadata is read and written entirely in your browser. Your file never leaves your device.

Which fields can I edit?

Title, author, subject, keywords and creator (the document's Info dictionary). The producer field is shown for reference.

Can I clear metadata for privacy?

Yes. Empty a field and save to remove that value — handy before sharing a document. Note that embedded XMP metadata is a separate, advanced layer not edited here.

Does editing metadata change the pages?

No. Only the document information is updated; the page content stays exactly the same.
