Remove PDF Metadata for marketers

Updated July 2026

Arthize lets marketing teams remove metadata from a PDF in a private workspace — free, with no watermark. Removing PDF metadata strips author names, software fingerprints, timestamps and hidden properties, so a shared file doesn't leak who made it or how.

Why marketers remove metadata from a PDF

A marketer exports a deck to PDF so fonts don't shift, compresses the case study for an email send, and converts key pages to images for a social post — all without a watermark.

Built for decks. Whether it's decks, one-pagers, case studies, Arthize's remove pdf metadata keeps the work inside your private workspace. Unreleased campaigns and client materials are confidential and shouldn't sit on a public server.

What matters when you remove metadata from a PDF

PDF metadata can include author name, software used and edit timestamps.

Stripping metadata prevents a shared file from revealing its origin.

Metadata is separate from the visible content.
