Is Edit PDF metadata free to use?

Yes. This tool is available for free with no account required for basic usage.

Are files secure when using Edit PDF metadata?

Uploaded files are processed temporarily and automatically removed after one hour.

How do I get the best result with Edit PDF metadata?

Use clean source files and review output after processing, especially for complex edit pdf metadata workflows.

Do I need an account or signup?

No. PDFBaba does not require signup for these tools. Upload, process, and download without creating an account.

Is there a watermark on the output?

Output from this tool is not watermarked by PDFBaba. You get a clean file suitable for work and sharing.

What is the maximum file upload size?

The default limit is 100MB per file on the server. Your host or administrator can change this via environment configuration. If a file fails to upload, try compressing or splitting it first.

Can I use this tool on my phone or tablet?

Yes. PDFBaba works in modern mobile browsers. Very large files or complex previews may be smoother on a desktop with a stable connection.

Is there a daily usage limit?

To keep the service fast for everyone, rate limits may apply per IP. Typical personal use is rarely affected. If you hit a limit, wait briefly and try again.

What if my PDF is password-protected?

For Edit PDF metadata, use an unlocked PDF when possible. If the file asks for a password in a reader, unlock it with our Unlock PDF tool first, then run Edit PDF metadata on the decrypted file.

Edit PDF metadata

Set title, author, subject, and keywords in the document info dictionary.

Why use Edit PDF metadata?

Archives, DAMs, and search indexes rely on good document metadata. Editing title, author, subject, and keywords makes PDFs easier to find later and looks more professional when shared externally. PDFBaba updates the Info dictionary fields you specify—at least one field is required per run. No signup is needed, and files are removed after about one hour. Pair metadata cleanup with Remove metadata when you need to strip hidden properties for disclosure instead of setting new ones.

Supported files & limits

One PDF; set at least one Info field (title, author, subject, or keywords). The default upload limit is 100MB per file; administrators can raise or lower this via server configuration.

Privacy & data retention

PDFBaba is built for quick tasks: your uploads and generated downloads are kept only long enough to process your request and are automatically deleted after about one hour. We do not require signup for these tools, and we do not use your documents to train AI models. For full details on cookies, analytics, and legal terms, read our Privacy Policy.
