Creating a PDF Submission
The process will vary based on the application used to generate the PDF. At a minimum, make sure the “Author” field is blank for the specific PDF document. Follow the instructions below to strip the metadata before you convert each of your documents to a PDF format.
By default, Microsoft Word saves certain metadata within your document, including the author’s name. To ensure the confidentiality of your application, it is important that you remove all identifying characteristics from your application materials. Thus, please follow the steps below carefully. Before beginning, please make sure you have a current backup of your files on external media (e.g., a USB thumb drive).
For questions about the application website or materials, contact Jessica Pasquale at hanesjl@umich.edu.
