Tech Tip - How To Remove Document Metadata for Security

- Go to File > Info > Check for Issues > Inspect Document.
- Select the types of metadata to inspect and remove.
- Run the inspection and review the results.
- Remove the metadata as needed.

This helps ensure your document doesn't inadvertently expose sensitive information.
