Edit or Remove Metadata from PDF
Change or clear a PDF's title, author, subject and keywords, then download the updated file.
Remove metadata from PDF online, without uploading
Clear the author field and the others, and the saved copy no longer carries them. It all happens in this browser tab — the file never reaches a server.
Or set it properly
Give a report a clean title and the right author before you publish or share it, so it shows up correctly in search results and PDF readers.
How it works
- 1Drop in a PDF — its current metadata loads automatically.
- 2Edit or clear the title, author, subject, or keywords.
- 3Download the file with the updated metadata.
Questions people ask
Does this remove metadata, or just let me change it?
Both: clear any field to remove it, or type a new value. To strip everything at once — including hidden XMP data, attachments and scripts — use Privacy Risk Scanner's cleanup option.
Will this change how the PDF looks?
No — metadata is separate from page content. Only the document properties change, not anything visible on the pages.
Does my file get uploaded anywhere?
No. Reading and editing metadata both happen entirely in your browser.
