About Edit Metadata Tool

Our Edit Metadata tool is a free online service that allows you to modify the document properties of your PDF files. PDF metadata contains information about the document such as title, author, subject, keywords, and more. This information is used by search engines, document management systems, and PDF readers to categorize and display information about the document.

Unlike other PDF metadata editors, our service processes your files entirely in your browser using JavaScript libraries like pdf-lib.js. This means your files never leave your computer, ensuring maximum privacy and security. There's no need to upload your sensitive documents to a remote server or worry about data breaches.
