Getting PDF document information into the PDF requires an extension by the FO processor. XEP and Antenna House have such extensions and the stylesheets make use of them. I don't think FOP has such an extension. If someone finds that it does, then please post a reference to it and file a bug report on SourceForge to get it supported in the stylesheets.

Hi,

is there a way to get DocBook XML metadata into the PDF
metadata? Information such as Title, Author, Keywords? Or is it
all lost in the FO stage? TIA!

Btw. I'm using docbook-xsl 1.73.2, fop 0.94/xmlroff 0.5.3, and
xsltproc 1.1.22, if it matters.

It depends on the FO processor - they usually support PIs that let you include PDF metadata; the docbook xsl stylesheets already know to write the correct PIs for FOP and XEP. (Maybe other processors, but I've tried those two.)

Cheers,

Chris
