PDF Metadata Remover for Mac
No need to install Preview plugins or command-line tools. Clean PDF metadata directly in your browser on any Mac.
Your files are never sent to our serversHow it works
While macOS Preview can view some PDF metadata, it cannot remove all hidden fields such as the PDF producer, creation tool, or embedded XMP metadata. Our browser-based tool works on any Mac and removes every trace of metadata without requiring installation or registration.
Why Mac users often search for this
macOS doesn't ship a built-in way to strip PDF metadata — Preview lets you view and edit some fields under Tools → Show Inspector, but it won't clear the PDF producer string, embedded XMP data, or history left by Pages or third-party editors. Command-line tools like exiftool exist but require Terminal comfort most people don't want for a one-off task.
FAQ
Does this work on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs?
Yes — since it runs entirely in your browser, it works identically regardless of your Mac's processor.
Do I need to install anything?
No. No app, plugin, or Terminal command is needed — just open the tool in Safari, Chrome, or any modern browser.
