- Step 3: Click "Save Metadata" to download the updated PDF file.
Update the internal document properties of your PDF. Set or correct document title, author name, subject summary, and comma-separated search keywords without modifying page contents.
Yes. Search engines like Google index the PDF Title and Author properties and often display them in search result snippets.
No. You can fill in only the fields you wish to set or update, leaving others empty.
You can inspect the saved file in any PDF viewer's Document Properties dialog or run it through our "Analyze PDF" tool.
PDF Toolbox is engineered with a strict browser-first architecture. All file operations execute entirely in your local browser sandbox via modern WebAssembly and JavaScript engines. No file bytes or sensitive document data are ever uploaded, buffered, or stored on external servers or cloud infrastructure. Memory buffers are cleared immediately when you finish or close your tab.
