             Summary: [PATCH] Add ability to specify custom properties in the Document Information Dictionary
                 Key: FOP-2385
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-2385
             Project: Fop
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: renderer/pdf
            Reporter: Vincent Hennebert
            Assignee: Vincent Hennebert


It is possible to add custom key/value pairs in the Info dictionary of a PDF document. Those custom properties will appear in the ‘Custom’ tab of Adobe Reader’s ‘Document Properties’ window (not sure about other viewers though).

This patch adds the possibility to do that. A pdf:info element can be added as a child of fo:declarations and contain the custom properties. For example:
{code:xml}
<fo:declarations>
  <pdf:info xmlns:pdf="http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/extensions/pdf">
    <pdf:name key="MyProperty">MyValue</pdf:name>
    <pdf:name key="MyOtherProperty">MyOtherValue</pdf:name>
  </pdf:info>
</fo:declarations>
{code}

Since it’s small, I thought that would be overkill to create a branch just for that. So I’m putting it here for peer review.

If nobody objects by 2014/06/12, I’m going to commit this patch to trunk.
