Managing the Document Title, Author, Subject, and Keywords

Document metadata doesn't jump out at readers the way bookmarks and logical page numbers do, but your readers can use it to help organize their collections. Plus, it looks pretty sharp to have them properly filled in. The title and author fields are often filled automatically with nonsense, such as the document's original filename (e.g., Mockup.doc) or the typesetter's username.

You can disable the automatic metadata added by Distiller. Open Distiller and edit your profile's settings. Uncheck Advanced >Preserve Document Information from DSC, and click OK.

In Acrobat 6, view and update this information by selecting File >Document Properties . . . >Description or Advanced >Document Metadata . . . . In Acrobat 5, select File >Document Properties >Summary.

Hi,

Try to get detail information about managing the document title, author, subject, and keywords. You will get more benefit no doubt. The above steps about metadata add by distiller are very clear and easy to use for every professional. Thanks a lot.
