Edit PDF Metadata: frequently asked questions

Why does PDF metadata matter?
The title is shown in browser tabs and search results, and the author and software fields can reveal who made a file. Setting or removing them keeps documents professional and private.
Does removing metadata change the content?
No. Only the document properties are removed. Pages, text, and images stay exactly the same.
Is the XMP metadata removed too?
Yes. The XMP metadata block is removed so it cannot show outdated or private values.
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. Metadata is read and written in your browser.
