View and edit PDF metadata right in your browser — no upload, no signup, nothing stored. Metadata is the hidden information attached to a PDF: its title, author, subject and keywords. Editing it helps with organisation, search and SEO, and can also remove details you would rather not share. Everything is processed locally on your own device.
How to Edit PDF Metadata
Upload your PDF
Drop your PDF or click to browse. Nothing is uploaded — it all stays on your device.
Apply the change
The tool processes your PDF instantly, right in the browser.
Download the result
Save the finished PDF. Because nothing was uploaded, there is nothing to delete afterwards.
Is it private?
Yes. Everything happens inside your browser using your own processor. Your file is never uploaded, stored or seen by anyone, which makes it safe for confidential documents. When you close the tab, nothing remains.
Common Uses
- Setting a proper title and author so the PDF is easy to find and identify.
- Removing the original author's name or software details before sharing a file.
- Adding keywords so a document is easier to search in a library or archive.
- Correcting metadata that was set wrongly when the PDF was first created.
- Standardising the metadata across a set of documents for a project or brand.
