PDF Metadata (also known as Document Properties) acts like a digital label for your file. While it doesn't directly boost your Google ranking, it is crucial for Internal Organization and Discoverability. Correctly setting the Title, Author, and Keywords helps document management systems (DMS) and operating system searches (like Spotlight or Windows Search) find the right file instantly. It also ensures that when the PDF is opened, the window title displays a clean, professional name instead of a cryptic filename like "scan_001.pdf".
