A PDF carries metadata you don't see on the page: title, author, subject, and keywords, shown in file properties and used by some search tools. Edit Metadata lets you view and update those fields directly.

Frequently asked questions about edit metadata
Will this change how the document looks?
No, metadata is separate from the visible page content — editing it doesn't touch the document's text or layout.
Can I remove metadata entirely instead of editing it?
Yes, clear a field to remove that piece of metadata from the file.
Is there a page limit?
It runs entirely in your browser, so it's bounded by your device's memory rather than a server-side limit.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No — editing metadata happens locally, so your document is never uploaded.
