PDFs contain metadata to find who created it, file names, modification history. DocHub Pro allows easy metadata modification, but there's a free way to change data. For single tasks, Sedja's PDF editor is straightforward. Upload files, edit fields like creation date and add new fields by typing a label and value. For example, add an artist field by typing "artist" under name and the artist's name under value.
