Ah, that key seems to be hard coded into the PDFBox parser

Short term, you can get the metadata key from PDFBoxParser

Medium term, any chance you could open an issue for this? We should either 
move the key out of the pdf parser (so others can use it too), or maybe 
shift it onto the parse context instead
