Frequently asked questions
What is a PDF metadata viewer?
A PDF metadata viewer is a tool that reads and displays the hidden information stored inside a PDF file, such as the author, title, creation date, PDF version, and page dimensions. Our free tool also lets you edit and save that metadata directly.
Can PDF metadata expose private or sensitive information?
Yes. This is one of the most common reasons people check PDF metadata. Author names, company names, software versions, and internal document details can all be embedded without you realizing it. Always check metadata before sharing confidential documents publicly.
Can I see who created or edited a PDF?
Yes. Upload your PDF and the tool will show you the creator, producer, and author fields, revealing what software or person originally made the PDF and what tool last modified it.
Can I change or remove the author name from a PDF?
Yes. You can edit the author, title, subject, keywords, and language fields directly in our tool and download the updated PDF with the changes saved.
Does editing PDF metadata change the actual content of the document?
No. Editing metadata only changes the hidden information fields like title, author, or keywords. The actual text, images, and layout of your PDF remain completely untouched.
Can I check the page size and dimensions of every page in my PDF?
Yes. The tool shows the exact width, height, size in inches and millimeters, orientation, and rotation for every single page, useful for print preparation or design verification. You can also use our free Split PDF or Merge PDF tools for managing your PDF pages.
What is APITemplate.io?
