Frequently asked questions
Is this PDF metadata editor free?
Yes. Editing PDF metadata is completely free with no sign-up, no account, and no watermark on the output.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Your PDF is read and rewritten entirely in your browser with pdf-lib, so it never leaves your device. That makes it safe for confidential documents.
Which properties can I change?
You can set the title, author and subject of the document. Leave any field blank to keep its current value.
Will editing metadata change the page content?
No. Only the document information is updated; the pages, text and images stay exactly as they were.
Are there file size limits?
The tool works with standard PDFs and runs locally, so there is no upload cap. Very large files depend on your device's available memory.
