Edit PDF metadata when descriptive document properties need correction

PDF metadata can include title, author, subject, keywords and other document information that is separate from the visible page text.

Editing metadata is useful for organization and publishing, but it does not alter text printed on the page and should not be treated as redaction.

Useful metadata-editing workflows

  • Correct document title or author fields.
  • Add useful subject or keyword information.
  • Prepare cleaner metadata before archiving or publishing.

What to verify

  • Open document properties after saving.
  • Do not put confidential information into metadata unintentionally.
  • Use a dedicated cleanup workflow when metadata should be removed rather than edited.

Before relying on the result

Keep the source until you have checked the generated output. The source and destination formats can represent structure, layout and metadata differently, so important documents should be reviewed in the application or device where the result will actually be used.
