On Thu, 13 Sep 2012 Scott Pakin submitted an update to the
hyperxmp
package.
Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/hyperxmp
Summary description: Embed XMP metadata within a LaTeX document.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
XMP (eXtensible Metadata Platform) is a mechanism proposed by Adobe for
embedding document metadata within the document itself. The metadata are
designed to be easy to extract, even by programs that are oblivious to the
document's file format. Most of Adobe's applications store XMP metadata when
saving files. Now, with the hyperxmp package, it is trivial for LaTeX document
authors to store XMP metadata in their documents as well. hyperxmp integrates
seamlessly with hyperref and requires virtually no modifications to documents
that already exploit hyperref's mechanisms for specifying PDF metadata.
Version 2.0 of hyperxmp represents a substantial effort by Heiko Oberdiek to
make the package Unicode-compatible. In addition, more metadata are included in
the XMP packet; elements containing commas can now be included in the author and
keyword lists (albeit awkwardly); and a workaround for Adobe Acrobat's confusion
between PDF and XMP author lists is now available.
