Why Use This Tool?
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?
No. Metadata is read and written entirely inside your browser using the PDF-lib library. Your document is never sent to a server, so document properties on private or confidential files stay fully under your control.
What is PDF metadata used for?
Metadata like Title and Author affects how a file appears in document management systems, search results and PDF reader title bars. Editing it can help organize files or remove personally identifiable information before sharing.
Can I clear a metadata field entirely?
Yes, just clear the text field before clicking "Apply & Download" and that property will be saved as empty.
Does editing metadata change the document's content?
No, only the document properties are modified — all pages, text, images and layout remain completely unchanged.
