Can I define new attributes in XMP for PDF? -
i know there attributes in xmp pdf files such as:
<xap:modifydate>2009-12-10t09:54:47-05:00</xap:modifydate> <xap:createdate>2009-12-10t09:42:54-05:00</xap:createdate> <xap:metadatadate>2009-12-10t09:54:47-05:00</xap:metadatadate> <xap:creatortool>adobe indesign cs4 (6.0.4)</xap:creatortool> but want define custom attributes example:
<xap:viewtitle>2009-12-10t09:54:47-05:00</xap:viewtitle> <xap:guid>2009-12-10t09:42:54-05:00</xap:guid> can it?
yes, can.
according xmp specification
new properties may added existing namespaces without “breaking” applications.
the definitions of properties in existing namespaces should remain same; otherwise, applications may produce incorrect behavior. if necessary change meaning of property, new property should created (and old 1 declared deprecated).
and can create new custom schemas. it's better approach extending existing schema.
more information can found in extensibility of schemas in xmp specification.
