Hi! thank you very much for the help! Yes, the PdfStamper stamper worked, there is really modified xmp metadata in the output pdf file. But the problem is, the old xmp metadata still exists. Now there are two blocks of xmp metadata in the output pdf file. Now to fix this problem?
Here is the relevant code in my program: PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(inputFile); String metadata = new String(reader.getMetadata()); ... // modify the metadata here PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, new FileOutputStream(output)); stamper.setXmpMetadata(metadata.getBytes()); stamper.close(); Many thanks in advance!
