About Metadata Editor

Metadata Editor Online — Fast, Secure & Private

PDF documents carry internal metadata properties that identify the author, title, creation software, and descriptive keywords. When publishing eBooks or distributing official corporate reports, accurate metadata improves search rankings and ensures professional presentation.

What is Metadata Editor?

The Metadata Editor accesses both the standard PDF Document Information Dictionary (Info dict) and the modern Extensible Metadata Platform (XMP) XML package. It enables you to inspect and modify standardized Dublin Core properties, PDF schema entries, and date timestamps.
