  How to change or unlock document properties? When I save to PDF the document saves to another person, not me
  
  See attached. I saved a Word doc to a PDF. The tag name is Richard Conyers, a name of someone other than me.
  
  How do I unlock or change the document properties and save to my name?

  Can we assume you only have the free Adobe Acrobat Reader? If so, you cannot change that on the pdf itself. Word is adding that meta-data so you need to find out how to change it before it is pdf'd or use the full version of Adobe Acrobat (assuming there are no edit restrictions on the document).
