Why use pdflu for this?
pdflu shows you everything hidden inside your PDF — page count, exact file size, title, author, subject, keywords, creation and modification dates, and the software that produced it. All read instantly in your browser without any upload.
You can also edit the metadata — fix a wrong author name, add a proper title, or clear personal information before sharing a document publicly. Changes are saved into a new copy; your original stays untouched.
Tips for best results
- Clearing the author field is a good privacy step before sharing PDFs publicly
- A descriptive title improves how the PDF appears in search results and browser tabs
- Keywords metadata can help document management systems categorise your file
- The producer field shows which software created the PDF — useful for troubleshooting
- Editing metadata does not change the visible content of your PDF in any way
Frequently Asked Questions
What metadata can I view with this tool?
Page count, file size, title, author, subject, keywords, creation date, modification date, and the producer software that generated the PDF.
What metadata can I edit?
You can edit the title, author, subject and keywords fields. Dates and producer information are set automatically by PDF software and reflect the document history.
Why would I want to remove PDF metadata?
PDFs often silently carry the author's real name and the software used. Clearing these fields before sharing a document publicly protects your privacy.
Does editing metadata change my document content?
No. Metadata is invisible information stored alongside the document. The visible pages, text and images remain exactly the same.
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere to read its properties?
No. The file is read entirely inside your browser using JavaScript. Nothing is transmitted to any server.
