Free PDF metadata remover that runs 100% in your browser. Upload a PDF and instantly see all hidden properties — author name, creation date, modification date, the software used to create it, keywords, and more. One click removes everything. The PDF content (text, images, formatting) stays exactly the same. Essential for lawyers, HR professionals, and anyone sharing documents externally. Your files never leave your device.
Every PDF stores metadata properties including: Author (your name or username), Title, Subject, Keywords, Creator (the application that made it, like "Microsoft Word" or "Adobe InDesign"), Producer (the PDF library used), CreationDate, and ModificationDate. Some PDFs also contain XMP metadata with additional details. All of this is readable by anyone who checks the file properties.
Lawyers sharing documents with opposing counsel. HR departments sending offer letters. Companies sending proposals to clients. Journalists protecting sources. Anyone sharing a PDF externally where the creator's identity, software, or timestamps could be sensitive. Metadata removal is standard practice in legal and corporate document production.
