Metadata

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,
I am using Delphi 2010 and QuickPdfLibrary 9.13.

I use SetDocumentMetadata to put some xmp metadata in a Pdf file and that works fine except of some characters. They are changed into '?' when I open the Pdf after it.

I see that I need to give a WideString as parameter. And when I show that string on screen all characters are Ok. When I save it using a stream and Utf-8 it is also ok. When I save it in a textfile, I see also wrong characters.

What can I do to get the right characters in the metadata of the Pdf file?

Thanks,
Evert-Jan
