10.4: Generate PDFs without embedded author information
Authored by: billclinton on Feb 12, '07 02:53:39PM

This is an interesting hint--thanks.

I have the exact same problem (providing anonymous reviews for manuscripts) and have solved it by editing the PDF in a text editor--search for your name (it appears as readable text within all the garbage characters) and just change it. It might be a good idea to keep the number of characters the same.

I also don't use a recognizable name, so if I forget to make the change I'm still OK wrt my anonymity.
