Remove Hidden PDF Metadata

About Remove Hidden PDF Metadata

Inspect and strip the author names, software fingerprints and creation timestamps hidden inside every PDF before you share it.

How it works

1. Add the PDF.
2. Inspect the hidden author names, software fingerprints and timestamps.
3. Strip them and download the clean file.

Use it before sending a document externally, since PDFs often carry the author's name and the software used.
