To do it in PdfWriter:
PdfStream xmp = new PdfStream("xmp text".getBytes("UTF-8"));
xmp.put(PdfName.TYPE, PdfName.METADATA);
xmp.put(PdfName.SUBTYPE, new PdfName("XML"));
PdfIndirectReference ref = writer.addToBody(xmp).getIndirectReference();
writer.getExtraCatalog().put(PdfName.METADATA, ref);
Use the iText version at itextpdf.sf.net.
