Add one or more PDFs. Fields you fill in are applied to every selected file; leave a field blank to leave that value unchanged.

Blank fields are left untouched on each file; only fields you type into are updated, and the same values are applied to every selected PDF.

Edit common PDF metadata such as Title, Author, Subject and Keywords. Metadata can help identify documents in file managers, document systems and search workflows without changing the visible page content.

What is PDF metadata?

Metadata is information stored with a PDF rather than the visible text on its pages. Common fields include title, author, subject and keywords. Updating these fields can make document collections easier to organize.

How to edit PDF metadata

  1. Select the PDF file or files.
  2. Enter the metadata values you want to use.
  3. Apply the changes.
  4. Download the updated PDF and verify the fields in a PDF viewer.

Why metadata matters

Clear metadata can improve document identification when files are archived, shared or indexed. For example, a descriptive title can be easier to recognize than a filename such as document-final-2.pdf.

Metadata is not page content

Changing metadata does not automatically rewrite visible headings, body text, images or tables inside the PDF. If the page itself needs editing, use a PDF editing or stamping tool instead.
