About Document Metadata Editor

Every Word document stores details behind the scenes, like the title, author, and subject, and they don't always say what you want. Maybe the author field shows a former colleague, or the title is leftover from a template. Fixing these by digging through Word's settings is fiddly. This tool lets you edit your DOCX metadata directly and cleanly.

Upload your .docx, update the fields you need, and download the document with corrected information. The whole process runs in your browser on ToolHub by Codaiman, so there's no signup, no install, and no watermark. It's free, and your file stays private. You get accurate document properties without hunting through menus or worrying about leftover details.
