A PDF can contain an internal title that is different from its filename. This page focuses the document-information editor on that metadata field so you can correct or replace it.

When to use it

  • Correct an outdated document title.
  • Replace a generic scanner title with a meaningful name.
  • Align the internal PDF title with a report or publication title.

Step-by-step workflow

  1. Choose the PDF whose metadata you want to edit.
  2. Find the Title field; this page focuses that task.
  3. Enter the corrected document title.

What you can accomplish

  • Correct an outdated document title.
  • Replace a generic scanner title with a meaningful name.
  • Align the internal PDF title with a report or publication title.

Tips for a better result

  • The internal title does not rename the downloaded file automatically.
  • Some viewers can display this title instead of the filename when document-title display is enabled.

Privacy and processing

Your PDF is processed in your browser by this tool. The document contents are not uploaded to an external processing server.

What to know

  • Some external systems may maintain their own metadata independently of the PDF file.
