Check and Clean PDFs: Redaction Check and Metadata Tools

Before you send a PDF, look at what it still contains. These tools find hidden text, show document properties and XMP data, and remove them.

Tools in this group

Check PDF Redaction

Drop any PDF to see whether its black boxes really removed the text, and what else the file still holds. Fix it in one click.

PDF Metadata Editor

Change the document properties of a PDF and save a new file. Leave a box empty to delete that property.

PDF Metadata Viewer

Open a PDF to read its properties and XMP data, with notes on what each one could reveal.

Remove Metadata from PDF

Clear everything a PDF remembers about its author and its history, then see the before and after counts.
