Hi,

Thanks for your posting.
Free version supports the feature.
Please refer to the following code.
Code: Select all
PdfDocument pdf = new PdfDocument();
pdf.LoadFromFile("sample.pdf", FileFormat.PDF);
XmpMetadata meta = pdf.DocumentInformation.GetMetaData();
CustomMetadata schmea = new CustomMetadata(meta, "custom", "www.e-iceblue.com");
schmea["Name"] = "e-iceblue";
document.SaveToFile("XmpMetadata.pdf");

Hi,

Sorry that it doesn't help.
Trial version has a new solution as below. Please try the following code with Spire.PDF Pack(Hot Fix) Version:3.6.167.
Code: Select all
 PdfDocument pdf = new PdfDocument();
            pdf.LoadFromFile("..\\..\\Sample3-1.pdf");
            XmpMetadata meta = pdf.XmpMetaData;
            meta.SetAuthor("new author");
            meta.SetTitle("new title");
            meta.SetSubject("new subject");
            pdf.SaveToFile("result.pdf");


Best Regards,
