Frequently asked questions
Why does PDF metadata matter?
Titles and authors appear in viewer tabs, file managers, and search results, so clean metadata makes documents easier to find and look more professional.
Does this change the page content?
No. Only the document properties change; your pages stay exactly the same.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Slate processes your PDF entirely in your browser. Your files never leave your device, which is faster and far more private than typical online tools.
Is Edit PDF Metadata really free?
Yes. Edit PDF Metadata is completely free with no signup and no limits. Slate is funded by unobtrusive ads, not subscriptions.
