TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
As I was formatting some templates for our Network Services department I
noticed that the documents' properties (right click > Properties > Summary
tab) showed various titles, authors and companies. As I was changing all of
these to "Technical Publications," the Network Services manager stopped by
saying, "You may have to get in there and delete all of the hidden data".
I know that I can remove personal information from these templates by
selecting Tools > Options > Security tab > Privacy > "Remove personal
information from file properties on save", but someone said that I should
use the Microsoft Remove Hidden Data add-in tool.
What is the best way to remove the metadata from these templates?
