❓ FAQ

What information is included in PDF metadata?

PDF metadata includes descriptive information such as: Title, Author, Subject, Keywords, Creator (the application that created the PDF), Producer (the library/tool that generated it), and creation/modification dates. This metadata doesn't affect content display but helps with document management, search, and classification.

What are practical uses for editing PDF metadata?

① Document standardization — unify metadata formats across your team ② SEO — PDF metadata affects search engine ranking ③ Document attribution — add author and copyright info ④ Batch management — add consistent metadata tags to documents ⑤ Privacy — remove personal info before sharing ⑥ Publishing — standardize ebook and academic paper metadata.

Does editing metadata affect PDF content?

No. Editing metadata only modifies the document information dictionary — it does not change page content, text, images, tables, annotations, or any visible elements. File size may change slightly, but content remains completely unchanged.

Can I batch edit PDF metadata?

This tool processes one PDF at a time. For batch processing, consider using Adobe Acrobat Pro's batch features, or programmatic approaches using libraries like pdf-lib.

Does this tool upload my PDF?

No. Everything runs locally in your browser using the pdf-lib library. Your PDF file is read locally, and all metadata extraction, editing, and saving happens on your device. Files never reach any server.
