# Remove PDF metadata.

Review filenames, document properties, notes, and visible context before sharing a PDF.

Before a PDF goes to a client, court, employer, or public link, review what the file name and document context might reveal.

## Target

metadata review

## Example Result

- Original: draft filename
- BitePDF output: clean name
- Saved: safer handoff

## Why This Workflow Works

- Review filenames
- Check document notes
- Create safer file names
- Use one-line search notes intentionally

## How To Use It

1. Open the PDF.
2. Ask for metadata and filename review.
3. Rename, redact, or export after checking context.

## Good For

- client delivery
- legal filings
- HR documents
- public links

## Questions

### Does BitePDF show the compression result before checkout?

Yes. BitePDF shows original size, output size, and saved percentage before you choose an export plan.

### Can I change compression strength?

Yes. The compression picker lets you choose Low, Medium, or High. Low favors quality, Medium balances quality and size, and High targets the smallest export.
