DocumentInformation is not visible (with Acrobat Reader)
--------------------------------------------------------
Key: PDFBOX-823
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-823
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Bug
Components: PDModel
Affects Versions: 1.3.0
Environment: JDK 1.6.0_21, Windows XP 32 Bit
Reporter: Martin Hilpert
I try to set PDF document inforamtion
(http://pdfbox.apache.org/userguide/metadata.html), but the final PDF doesn't
have my information set! E.g.
final PDDocumentInformation pddi = doc.getDocumentInformation();
pddi.setAuthor("MeAndMyself");
I debugged and ensured that after creation of PDF with APache FOP, this is the
last action on the PDF done. But when viewing with Acrobat Reader, only the
information that I set during FOP rendering is shown.
But then I noticed that when I view the PDF file with FoxIt Reader (4.0), File
> Properties show all the properties I set like Title, Author, Producer.
Viewing this exact same PDF file with Acrobat Reader (9.3.4), this properties
are not shown (and some other properties are shown I set during the first FOP
PDF Rendering to produce the PDF).
I wonder if there are multiple ways to store such information in a PDF? Why is
showing FoxItReader the properties I set afterwards with PDFBox, but Adobe
Reader ignores those Properties and show the properties set on the first PDF
generation?
