FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What metadata fields can I view and edit?
Title, author, subject, keywords, creator application, and producer (PDF engine) are editable. Creation date, modification date, PDF version, page count, and file size are shown for reference but generated automatically.
Does editing metadata affect the document content?
No. Metadata changes only affect the document's information fields. Pages, text, images, and layout remain completely unchanged — nothing in the visible content is touched.
Can I remove metadata entirely for privacy?
Yes. Use the clear button next to each field to empty it individually, or clear every field one by one before saving to strip identifying information like author name or creator software from the document.
Why would I need to change a PDF's metadata?
Common reasons include fixing an outdated title or author name, standardizing fields across company documents, improving how a file is found and indexed for SEO or archiving, and stripping personal identifiers before sharing a file publicly.
