Creating pdfs with pdfLaTeX populates several pdf meta-data fields such as date/time of creation/modification, information about the latex installation (e.g., pdfTeX version), and the relative paths of included pdfs. The pdfprivacy package provides support for emptying several of these pdf meta-data fields as well as suppressing some pdfTeX meta-data entries in the resulting pdf.
To install run the following:
latex pdfprivacy.ins
This will generate the pdfprivacy.sty file.
Put this file in a directory searched by LaTeX (e.g., ~/texmf or texmf-local) or in the folder of your .tex file in which you want to use it.
Include \usepackage{pdfprivacy} in your .tex file.
For more detailed usage information, check the documentation.
To generate the documentation run:
pdflatex pdfprivacy.dtx
