3. Metadata

Data such as "author", "title" and "subject" can be used to create PDF documents. The metadata is included in the following order:

<html>
  <head>
    <title>My Document</title>
      <meta name="author" content="RealObjects GmbH"</meta>
      <meta name="subject" content="PDFreator Manual"</meta>
  <head>
...
</html>

Example: Specifying metadata using the PDFreactor Java API.

pdfReactor.setAuthor("John Doe");
pdfReactor.setTitle("Architecture of the World Wide Web, Volume One");
pdfReactor.setSubject("Architecture of the world wide web");

The code above creates meta data as shown in the screenshot below:
