Edit PDF Metadata: what to know

Set document properties such as title, author, subject and keywords. These values describe the PDF file itself and may be displayed by readers or document-management software.

Changing metadata does not rewrite the visible page text or rename the downloaded file's contents. Search engines and PDF readers decide which properties they display; entering keywords is not a guarantee of search visibility.

Popular uses

  • Give a report a descriptive document title
  • Correct an author property
  • Label a document for an internal archive

Tips for the best result

  • Check document properties in a reader after saving.
  • Use Remove PDF metadata when you want to clear properties instead.
