Hi, we currently have two libraries handling XMP metadata jempbox and xmpbox.
Part of PDFBOX-1187/PDFBOX-2197 was to remove a direct dependency from jempbox as now XMP metadata could be generated by any library and added as a stream. This will be available for PDFBox 2.0.0. I would like to propose to now retire jempbox as xmpbox # is closer to the spec (naming conventions) # used for PDF/A validation where we can not remove a dependency on XMP handling as checking metadata is necessary for PDF/A compliance. In case there is functionality in jempbox that is missing in xmpbox that could be added at a later stage upon request. WDYT? BR Maruan
