GHOST-WRITER // Secure Metadata Stripper
A lightweight, zero-dependency, local desktop utility built specifically for digital publishers, independent authors, and information security professionals. Ghost-Writer performs deep binary-level and structural sanitization on common digital manuscript formats (`.epub`, `.docx`, `.pdf`) to completely obliterate tracking pixels, embedded revision histories, metadata tags, and corporate author leaks before you upload your files to public distribution networks (like Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, or Smashwords).
Key Security Engineering Functions
- **EPUB Ebooks:** Recursively unpacks the compressed Open Packaging Format archive directly into memory. Parses the internal manifest XML files, scrubs standard Dublin Core metadata elements (`
- **Microsoft Word (DOCX):** Targets the core structural property streams inside the Microsoft OpenXML standard (`docProps/core.xml` and `docProps/app.xml`). It purges detailed file author profiles, actual active revision counts, total editing duration stamps, and document template creation timelines.
- **PDF Documents:** Directly executes byte-level stream modifications using `pypdf`. It completely swaps out the classic global Document Information Dictionary framework (`/Info`) and overwrites XML-based Extensible Metadata Platform (`/XMP`) data blocks, leaving a sanitized binary file structure.
