What is PDF Metadata Viewer?

PDF Metadata Viewer reads the document properties embedded in a PDF file — title, author, subject, keywords, creator, producer, creation and modification dates, PDF version and page count — and displays them in a clean table. It's useful for checking who created a file, when it was last modified, or whether sensitive metadata needs to be removed before sharing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my PDF uploaded to a server?

No. PDF Metadata Viewer reads your file entirely in your browser. It is never uploaded to our servers.

Why are some fields blank?

Not every PDF has every metadata field filled in. Fields like Title, Author or Keywords are optional and depend on how the PDF was created.

Can I edit this metadata?

This tool only displays metadata. Use PDF Metadata Editor to change the title, author, subject or keywords.

Does this work with password-protected PDFs?

Encrypted PDFs may not be readable in the browser. If your file is password-protected, remove the password first.
