Every PDF carries hidden properties: title, author, subject, keywords, the program that created it and dates. Edit them to give your document a proper title in browser tabs and search results, or remove them for privacy before sharing.
Search engines show the PDF title in results, so a clear title helps documents you publish online.
How to edit PDF Metadata
- Choose the PDF.
- Edit or clear the title, author, subject and keywords.
- Save the updated PDF.
Private by design
Most online PDF sites upload your file to their server. AK Smarts PDF opens and processes it inside your own browser, on your computer or phone, so salary slips, bank statements, Aadhaar and PAN copies, and contracts never leave your device. It works on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone, and you can install it like an app to open PDFs with a double-click.
Questions
Why does my PDF show the wrong title?
The title property was set by the program that made it. Change it here.
Does this change the content?
No. Only the properties change.
Can I remove all metadata?
Yes, clear every field before saving.
Is AK Smarts PDF safe for confidential files?
Yes. Files are opened and processed on your own computer or phone and are never uploaded to our server. Only e-Sign sends a short fingerprint of the document, never the document itself.
Does Edit PDF Metadata work on my phone?
Yes. AK Smarts PDF works in Chrome, Safari, Edge and Firefox on Android, iPhone, Windows and Mac. You can also install it like an app.
