如何使用PDFbox将元数据添加到PDF文档?

我有一个PDF文档的输入流可供我使用。我想将subject元数据添加到文档中,然后保存。我不知道该怎么做。

我在这里看到了一个示例食谱:https://pdfbox.apache.org/1.8/cookbook/workingwithmetadata.html

然而,它仍然是模糊的。以下是我正在尝试的地方以及我有疑问的地方

PDDocument doc = PDDocument.load(myInputStream);
PDDocumentCatalog catalog = doc.getDocumentCatalog();
InputStream newXMPData = ...; //what goes here? How can I add subject tag?
PDMetadata newMetadata = new PDMetadata(doc, newXMLData, false );
catalog.setMetadata( newMetadata );
//does anything else need to happen to save the document??
//I would like an outputstream of the document (with metadata) so that I can save it to an S3 bucket

以下代码设置PDF文档的标题,但它也应该适用于其他属性:

public static byte[] insertTitlePdf(byte[] documentBytes, String title) {
    try {
        PDDocument document = PDDocument.load(documentBytes);
        PDDocumentInformation info = document.getDocumentInformation();
        info.setTitle(title);
        ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        document.save(baos);
        return baos.toByteArray();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

    return null;
}
需要

Apache PDFBox,因此请将其导入到Maven:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.pdfbox</groupId>
    <artifactId>pdfbox</artifactId>
    <version>2.0.6</version>
</dependency>

添加标题:

byte[] documentBytesWithTitle = insertTitlePdf(documentBytes, "Some fancy title");

使用(JSF示例)在浏览器中显示它:

<object class="pdf" data="data:application/pdf;base64,#{myBean.getDocumentBytesWithTitleAsBase64()}" type="application/pdf">Document could not be loaded</object>

结果(Chrome):

PDF documento title change result

另一种更简单的方法是使用内置的Document Information对象:

PDDocument inputDoc = // your doc
inputDoc.getDocumentInformation().setCreator("Some meta");
inputDoc.getDocumentInformation().setCustomMetadataValue("fieldName", "fieldValue");

这也有不需要xmpbox库的好处。

此答案使用xmpbox,来自源代码下载中的AddMetadataFromDocInfo example

XMPMetadata xmp = XMPMetadata.createXMPMetadata();
DublinCoreSchema dc = xmp.createAndAddDublinCoreSchema();
dc.setDescription("descr");
XmpSerializer serializer = new XmpSerializer();
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
serializer.serialize(xmp, baos, true);
PDMetadata metadata = new PDMetadata(doc);
metadata.importXMPMetadata(baos.toByteArray());
doc.getDocumentCatalog().setMetadata(metadata);
