If you compile the following snippet, you'll see no title metadata in
the PDF:
\version "2.19.43"
\bookpart {
\header {
title = "Title"
pdftitle = "PDF title"
}
{ c1 }
}
This happens because \header is within a \bookpart block. If you move
it outside \bookpart, the title appear in PDF metadata.
It's a bug? I think so. LilyPond should check if there's a \header
block in an higher level (\book); if there is no \header in a higher
level, it should use the \header values within \bookpart.
This is important to me because:
1. Most of my songs are wrapped in \bookpart blocks, because I can then
make a book just including the files from a master \book file
2. As a result of this bug, all my single songs in my LilyPond score
collection are missing PDF metadata (so they appear as "untitled" in
Gnome Documents, the application I use to quickly find my local PDF)
