Embed/Extract PlanetPress Workflow Metadata
Embed the current PlanetPress Workflow Metadata inside the current data file in a PDF emulation. It
can also extract PlanetPress Workflow Metadata from the current data file and make the extracted file
the new current Metadata file.
For more information about Metadata see: "Metadata" on page67.
Input
A PDF File, either with no Metadata and along with Metadata that presumably corresponds to the PDF
file, or a PDF file with embedded Metadata.
Processing
If the Embed option is used, the Metadata information is embedded directly into the PDF File as binary
data. This does not change the way the PDF is viewed by any PDF viewer.
If the Extract option is used, Metadata present inside of the PDF file is extracted from it. If no Metadata
is embedded, the task generates an error: W3976.
Output
The PDF file with embedded Metadata (the Metadata is not deleted from the PDF File on extraction, so
this task will always output a PDF with embedded Metadata).
Task properties
General Tab
l
Extract Metadata into PDF job file: the Metadata is extracted from the current data file (which
is assumed to be a PDF file in which Metadata has been previously embedded), and it becomes
the current Metadata from this point on, overwriting any current Metadata file that may already be
set.
