How to copy properties from one PDF to another
PDF properties are the hidden details saved in a file, such as the title and author. This tool copies them from a second PDF into your first one. Add the PDF you want to change first, then the PDF to copy from. The first PDF keeps every page. Extra pages from the second PDF are never added. The tool copies the title, author, subject, keywords, creator, producer, creation date and modification date. If the second PDF is missing one of them, the first PDF keeps its own. Extra hidden data some PDFs carry is not copied. You download with-info.pdf. Both original files are left alone. This saves time when you have a new version of a file and want it to carry the same details as the old one.
Your files stay on your device. They're never uploaded, and we never see them. Neither file is sent anywhere. Your browser saves the result as with-info.pdf. Close the page and that copy is gone.
There is no page limit. It works the same on a one-page file and a long report. Very large files depend on your device's memory. You don't need an account, and there is no daily limit and no watermark. Do as many files as you like, one after another.
Add both files first, or you'll be asked for the second PDF. Password-protected? Unlock it first with Unlock PDF, then try again. If the file won't open, it may be damaged or may not be a PDF. Try another copy. Large files can take a few seconds to open. Still stuck? Open the saved file in another PDF reader to check it.
How to use this tool
- Choose your file. It never leaves your device.
- Pick a setting, if the page has one.
- Download your new file.
