View and edit (or completely strip) hidden metadata: author name, company, creation software, GPS data embedded in images, and custom properties. Essential before sharing sensitive documents.
PDFZero lets you view and edit a PDF's metadata — title, author, subject, keywords, and dates — or strip it entirely for privacy. Everything happens locally in your browser, with no upload required.
PDF metadata can reveal the original author's name, the software used to create the document, or creation/modification dates — information you may not want to share. Editing or stripping metadata helps control what information travels with a shared file.
Title, author, subject, keywords, and creation/modification dates are all editable.
Metadata can unintentionally reveal personal information, like the real name of the document's author or the software/device used to create it. Stripping it before sharing a file removes that exposure.
No, metadata is read and edited entirely within your browser — the file is never sent to a server.
No, metadata is separate from the visible page content; editing it doesn't alter what's printed or displayed on the pages.
