Questions about this tool

What metadata can I change?

Title, author, subject, keywords, and the creation and modification dates. You can also clear the producer and creator fields.

Why does metadata matter?

It can reveal an author's name, software and edit history, and it affects how documents are indexed and displayed. Tidying it before sharing is good practice.

Will editing metadata change the page content?

No. Only the document information is changed; the pages are left exactly as they are.

Is my file uploaded?

No. Metadata is read and written in your browser, so nothing leaves your device.
