Frequently Asked Questions
Which information is cleaned?
Document metadata fields like title, author, subject, keywords, and the producing software are cleared.
Why might I need to clean metadata?
Before sharing a document, you may want to remove traces of who created it and with what software.
Does this affect the document's content (text, images)?
No, only the information about the document changes — page content stays exactly the same.
Can removed metadata be recovered?
In the cleaned file you download, the old metadata is permanently removed; your original file on your device stays unchanged.
