What is PDF metadata?

PDF metadata includes properties like title, author, creation date, and software used to create the document. This information can reveal personal details or software versions.

Can I remove all metadata at once?

Yes. Use the Remove All tab to strip all document properties and XMP data in one click. You receive a clean copy.

Will editing metadata change the PDF content?

No. Only the document properties are modified. All pages, text, images, and formatting remain identical.

What does the Anonymize preset do?

It removes Author, Creator, Producer, and creation dates while keeping Title, Subject, and Keywords. Ideal for publishing without revealing personal details.

Can I edit metadata of password-protected PDFs?

You need to unlock the PDF first using our Unlock PDF tool, then you can edit the metadata.
