Hello.
To set PDF file properties you could use next report properties:
Code: Select all
Title - Report Name
Author - Report Author
Subject - Report Alias
Also you could set next properties for all exported PDF files
Code: Select all
Stimulsoft.Report.StiOptions.Export.Pdf.CreatorString
Stimulsoft.Report.StiOptions.Export.Pdf.KeywordsString
or use StiPdfExportSettings to set these properties for each report:
Code: Select all
Stimulsoft.Report.Export.StiPdfExportSettings.CreatorString
Stimulsoft.Report.Export.StiPdfExportSettings.KeywordsString
Thank you.

Hi,
I believe this functionality has been added in Reports.Ultimate 2015.1:
http://www.stimulsoft.com/en/changes/reports-ultimate
"Export to PDF. Now you can add custom properties."
Can you please supply some sample code to show how to add custom properties when you export to pdf? I can't find any documentation for this new feature and after downloading 2015.1.18 (pre-release) I couldn't figure it out either.
Many thanks.

Hello.
You should use MetaTags of the report. The name of the tag should start from "pdf:".
Next code shows how to add Meta Tags:
Code: Select all
report.MetaTags.Add(new StiMetaTag("pdf:Name1", "Value1"));
report.MetaTags.Add(new StiMetaTag("pdf:Name2", "Test"));
Thank you.

Great, this seems to work
I'm sure it would be useful to others if you guys added this to your documentation somewhere.
Thanks very much!
