Table Of Contents
The tab also provides an option to highlight the task in "The Process area" on page829 with
the default color, set in the Preferences (see "General appearance preferences" on page716),
or the color selected or defined under Highlight color on this tab.
To revert the selected highlight color to the default color, open this tab, turn the Highlight option
off and close the dialog with the OK button; then turn highlighting back on.
Highlighting can also be turned on and off via the task's contextual menu and with the Highlight
button on the View ribbon.
Embed/Extract PReS Workflow Metadata
Embed the current PReS Workflow Metadata inside the current data file in a PDF emulation. It
can also extract PReS 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 page73.
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

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),
