Good to know
Every PDF carries hidden details: a title, the author's name, the app that made it and when. The title is what browsers show in the tab and what search engines often show in results, so a clear one makes a shared PDF look professional.
The author field often holds a personal or company name you didn't mean to share. Remove all clears every field, including the hidden XMP copy some apps add, before you post a file publicly.
Only the details change. Pages, text and quality stay exactly as they were.
