PDF Metadata Editor
Need to view and edit title, author, subject? PDF Metadata Editor does it in the browser, in a couple of clicks. Pages are read and rewritten inside your browser with the PDF-lib engine, so the document never travels to a server and nothing is stored after you close the tab. It is used most by job seekers merging a CV, cover letter and portfolio into a single attachment. Keeps the original page size, embedded fonts and image quality — no silent re-compression. There is no account to create, no email to hand over and no cap on how often you use it.
Key features
- Password-protected PDFs must be unlocked before use — encrypted files cannot be read in the browser.
- Handles standard PDF 1.4–1.7 files, including ones produced by Word, Google Docs, Canva and scanner apps.
- Works on desktop, tablet and phone — no separate app to install.
- Built to do one job properly rather than twenty jobs badly.
How to use PDF Metadata Editor
- Add your PDF: Drag the file onto the drop area, or click it to browse your device. Several files can be added at once where the tool supports it.
- Set the options: Choose page ranges, order or output settings. The preview updates so you can confirm before committing.
- Download the result: Press the action button and the finished PDF saves straight to your downloads folder.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the largest file PDF Metadata Editor can handle? — There is no hard limit set by us — the practical ceiling is your device's memory. Documents up to about 100 MB are routine; several-hundred-megabyte scans may be slow on an older phone.
- Can PDF Metadata Editor open a password-protected PDF? — Not while it is encrypted. Remove the password in the app that created the file first, then the tool can read it normally.
- Does PDF Metadata Editor upload my document anywhere? — No. PDF Metadata Editor opens the PDF with JavaScript inside your own browser tab. The file is never sent to a server, which is why it also works with confidential contracts and medical or legal paperwork.
- Will PDF Metadata Editor reduce the quality of my pages? — No. PDF Metadata Editor copies pages at their original resolution and keeps embedded fonts and images untouched, unless you deliberately choose a compression option.
