Strip the hidden document properties from a PDF: author, title, dates, and the software that made it.
Every PDF quietly carries who made it, which program was used, and when it was created and last edited. That is fine inside a company, but it is worth clearing before a document goes to a client, a university, a court, or a public website.
Worth knowing: This removes the document properties. It does not touch text, images, or anything visible on the page.
Drag the file onto the upload area, or browse from your device.
Clear the document properties, the XMP metadata, or both. Both are selected by default.
The properties are stripped inside your browser. Nothing is uploaded.
Save the clean file. The tool lists exactly which entries it found and removed.
This matters more here than almost anywhere else. Sending a document to a server to have its author name stripped means handing that name to the server first. This tool works inside your browser, so the information you are clearing is never transmitted in the first place.
Your original file is also left untouched. The tool builds a new PDF and hands it to you, so you always keep the version you started with.
Add your PDF and run the tool. The document properties are cleared and the new file is ready to download straight away.

The title, author, subject, keywords, the program that created the file, the program that produced it, and the creation and modification dates. You can also clear the XMP metadata, which is a second place where this information is stored.
No. This tool clears the document properties only. Text that is written on the page, including white text or content hidden under an image, stays where it is.
Yes. Metadata is not needed to display a PDF, so the file opens and prints exactly as before.
No. Everything happens inside your browser on your own device. Your file is never sent anywhere, and nothing is stored.
No. Your original PDF stays exactly as it is. The tool creates a new file for you to download.
Yes. It is completely free with no sign-up, no watermark, and no daily limit.
