Why the title matters
Many viewers show the PDF's title instead of its file name, and search engines use it for PDFs on websites. An old template title like “Untitled-3” looks unprofessional.
Fix the author name
Apps often fill in the author from your computer account. Replace it with your name or company before sharing.

Edit PDF Metadata FAQ

How do I remove a value?+
Clear the field and save. To remove everything at once, use Remove PDF Metadata.
Do keywords help SEO?+
The title matters most for search. Keywords are mainly used by document management systems.
Does this change the pages?+
No. Only the document details change.
Is this tool really free?+
Yes. No sign-up, no watermark, no daily limits. It's free because it runs on your own device.
Are my files uploaded to a server?+
No. Your files are processed entirely inside your browser and never leave your device. You can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads.
Is it safe for confidential documents?+
Yes. Because nothing is uploaded, contracts, bank statements, IDs and medical records stay on your device. There's no server copy that could be stored, shared or leaked.
Do I need to create an account or install anything?+
No. Open the page and use the tool — no account, no email, no extension and no download.
How large can my files be?+
There's no fixed limit. Because the work happens on your device, the practical limit is your browser's memory — files of a few hundred MB usually work fine on a laptop. Very large files are faster in the Mac app.
Which browsers are supported?+
Any modern browser: Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox, Brave and Opera, on Mac, Windows, Linux, iPhone, iPad and Android.
Will my file have a watermark?+
No. Your result is exactly what you made — no watermark, no added pages and no branding.
Is there a desktop app?+
Yes — ilovepdfmac for Mac does all of this and much more (Word, Excel and PowerPoint to PDF, a full PDF editor, real compression) offline, for a one-time $9.99.
