Questions
Why does the title matter?
The title is shown in the browser tab and in most readers, ahead of the file name.
How do I remove my name from a PDF's details?
Turn on "Remove all metadata". Title, author, dates, programs and the XMP copy are all removed. The author is often filled in with your computer or account name.
Can I change the created date?
Yes. Set Created and Modified yourself, or keep "Modified now" on to use the moment you save.
Is my file uploaded?
No. The details are read and changed on your device.
