Alexander Kriegisch commented on PDFBOX-3323:
---------------------------------------------
I just tested it like this:
{code}
PDFMergerUtility merger = new PDFMergerUtility();
merger.addSources(sources);
merger.setDestinationStream(outputStream);
PDDocumentInformation documentInformation = new PDDocumentInformation();
documentInformation.setTitle("My title");
documentInformation.setAuthor("Albert Einstein");
documentInformation.setSubject("My subject");
merger.setDestinationDocumentInformation(documentInformation);
merger.mergeDocuments(MemoryUsageSetting.setupMainMemoryOnly());
{code}
For me it does not work, I still see document properties from one of the merged
documents.
> Cannot set destination meta data in PDFMergerUtility

> Key: PDFBOX-3323
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3323
> 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.
