About the PDF Metadata Viewer & Editor
The title shown in a browser tab or search result for a PDF comes from its metadata, not its file name. Getting the title, author and keywords right helps PDFs look professional and rank in search engines; removing them protects your privacy.
This editor reads the document properties of any PDF, lets you change them and saves a new copy, all without uploading the file.
