Remove hidden data before sharing

Before a PDF leaves your hands, it's worth knowing what's buried inside. VersoPDF's Inspector surfaces hidden metadata, author details and revision history so you can clean them up before sharing.

  1. Open the Inspector — Drop the PDF in; everything is analysed in your browser.
  2. Review hidden data — Metadata, author, producer and revision history are surfaced for you.
  3. Share with confidence — Know exactly what's inside before the file goes to anyone else.

Why remove hidden data from a PDF?

Metadata can reveal your name, your software, internal file paths and past edits. Reviewing it before sharing keeps that information from reaching people you didn't intend.

Is my PDF uploaded to check it?

No. The Inspector reads the file in your browser, so nothing is stored on our servers.

Is this feature free?

The Inspector is a Pro feature. If you only need to confirm a VersoPDF-signed file is unchanged, the free Verify tool does that by QR or hash.
