Metadata Editor
Update PDF title, author, subject, and keywords privately in your browser.
Full Control Over Your PDF Metadata
Every PDF file carries hidden information called metadata — including the document's title, author name, subject, keywords, and the application that created it. This information is invisible in most viewers but is read by search engines, file explorers, and document management systems.
Why Metadata Matters
Before sharing a document externally, it is important to review its metadata. A PDF exported from a corporate template might carry internal author names, confidential project titles, or software version identifiers that you would not want a client or the public to see. Our Metadata Editor lets you clean or update all of these fields before distribution.
Pre-Populated Fields
When you load a PDF, our tool automatically reads the existing metadata and pre-fills the form fields. You can then selectively update only the fields that need changing — no need to re-enter everything from scratch.
SEO for PDFs
Google and Bing index PDF files and use their metadata to understand and rank the content. Setting a clear Title and relevant Keywords in your PDF metadata can improve its visibility in search results — a technique widely used for published reports, whitepapers, and research papers.
