Package: dblatex
Version: 0.3.4-2
Severity: wishlist

When using dblatex to create a PDF from a docbook file, the docbook
title is added as the PDF title in the PDF metadata set, but there is
nothing inserted into the PDF subject field, as far as I can tell.
This field is used as a subtitle by at least CreateSpace,
<URL: http://www.createspace.com/ >, (owned by Amazon), and it seem to
be well suited for the subtitle field in the docbook file.

Perhaps it could be an idea to modify
/usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/dblatex/xsl/preamble.xsl to add
pdfsubject to the \hypersetup block and insert the content of
<bookinfo><subtitle> there by default?

At the moment I've been unable to find a way to add a PDF subject (aka a
CreateSpace subtitle) to the PDF when using dblatex, and this is
unfortunate when this seem to control the presentation of a PDF book on
Amazon according to the PDF Submission Specification from CreateSpace.
