Martin Hilpert commented on PDFBOX-823:
---------------------------------------
Ha: the FoxIt Reader "Document Properties" window also has a butten "More...".
If I click it, a new window "Properties of <file name>" shows up - it's tab
"PDF" also shows the old/wrong title (set by Apache FOP PDF generation) , but
the new creator set by PDFBOx ...!?!?
So, there really seems to be multiple "PDF properties"?

> 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?
