How to edit PDF properties

- Change or clear any field.
- Press Save Metadata and download the updated PDF.
Why metadata matters
Every PDF carries hidden details. The title is what many readers and browsers show in the tab instead of the file name. The author field often has the name of whoever made the original file, sometimes a former employee or a computer name. Before you send a file outside, it is worth checking what it says about you.
Safe for private documents
Editing happens inside your own browser. Your file is not uploaded to our server, so Aadhaar copies, marksheets, bank statements and office papers stay on your phone or computer. There is no sign-up, no daily limit and no watermark, and it works in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari on Android, iPhone, Windows and Mac.
Good uses
- Give a resume or report a clear title such as Ravi Kumar Resume 2026.
- Remove an old author name before sharing a template.
- Add keywords to PDFs you publish on your website so they are easier to find.
Only the stored properties change. The pages, text and pictures of the PDF stay exactly the same.
What each field means
The title is the document name that PDF readers and browsers show at the top of the window. The author is the person or organisation that made the file. The subject is a short line about what the document covers, and keywords are words that help search tools and document managers find the file. Filling these in properly makes your PDFs look professional when you send them to a company or upload them to your website. Clearing them is useful when a file was made from someone else's template and still carries their name or company. Check the fields again after saving to make sure they are what you want.
