PDF Metadata Remover

Strip hidden document metadata from a PDF without changing its visible content.

Removes identifying document metadata - Title, Author, Subject, Keywords, Creator, Producer, dates, and XMP metadata - from a PDF. Visible page content, page count, bookmarks, annotations, and forms are left exactly as they are; this tool only touches metadata.
