How would you like this to work - just assign both in the mergeDocuments() 
call, just before saving?
{code}
                while (sit.hasNext())
                {
                    sourceFile = sit.next();
                    source = PDDocument.load(sourceFile, partitionedMemSetting);
                    tobeclosed.add(source);
                    appendDocument(destination, source);
                }
                ///// insert here?
                if (destinationStream == null)
                {
                    destination.save(destinationFileName);
                }
                else
                {
                    destination.save(destinationStream);
                }
{code}

> Cannot set destination meta data in PDFMergerUtility

>             Project: PDFBox
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 1.8.9, 2.0.0
>            Reporter: Alexander Kriegisch
>              Labels: merge, metadata
>
> When merging multiple PDFs into one compound document via 
> {{PDFMergerUtility}}, meta data like title, author, subject cannot be set but 
> seem to be taken from one of the input documents. This is usually not the 
> desired behaviour because as a user I have no direct influence on the meta 
> data. As a user I would like to explicitly set or at least overwrite certain 
> meta data for the destination document. Currently I can only set the 
> destination stream or file name, but not the meta data.
