  • This removes the properties and, if chosen, annotations (comments and markup). Text and images written on the pages stay as they are.

  • Password-protected PDFs are not supported.

FAQ

Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything is processed inside the browser on your device.

Is my original PDF changed?

No. A new PDF is saved separately.

The Author field is empty, but a name still shows up.

A name can also be in the software fields or in the text inside the pages.

If PDF Mikata was useful, a small tip would mean a lot.
