PDF Metadata Remover – Strip Hidden Data from Your PDFs
Look, I've been there. You create a PDF, send it to a client or upload it somewhere, and then you realize — oh crap, my name is in the author field. Or the creation date gives away when I started working on this. Or there's a bunch of random keywords that I don't even remember adding. It's annoying, right? And honestly, it's a privacy risk too.
That's why I built this PDF metadata remover. It lets you strip out all the hidden metadata from your PDFs — title, author, subject, keywords, creator, producer, creation date, and modification date. You can remove individual fields or wipe everything with one click. And here's the best part — it all happens locally in your browser. No uploads. No servers. No one else ever sees your file.
Wipe every metadata field with one click. Perfect for anonymizing documents before sharing.
Check individual fields to remove only what you want. Keep the rest.
Strip creation and modification dates — something most free tools can't do.
Your PDF never leaves your browser. No uploads, no servers, no privacy worries.
Use it right now. No registration, no email, no credit card. Just remove and go.
Desktop, tablet, phone — it works in any modern browser.

Why I Made This (and Why You'll Actually Use It)
Here's the thing — I used to use those big online PDF tools. You know the ones. They work, but they're slow, they have limits, and honestly, I never felt great about uploading my documents to who-knows-where. So I built this. It's lightweight, it's fast, and everything stays on your machine. No file size limits (well, browser memory is the limit, but that's usually plenty). No watermarks. No begging you to upgrade to "Pro."
I've used this to strip metadata from client files before sending them out, anonymize documents before posting them online, and just clean up PDFs that had random junk in the metadata fields. It's one of those tools you don't think you need until you need it, and then you're really glad it exists.
