Generate Copyright from FM File Info to Acrobat

Question

Author, Title, Subject, and Keywords from FrameMaker's File Info are automatically generated into the Acrobat Properties when you create a PDF. We would like to generate the Copyright information as well to avoid having to enter it manually into Additional Metadata each time. Does anyone know a setting or a hack that will accomplish this?

Thanks for any help!

You can do it with a PostScript text frame:

1. Create a file, possibly named PDFMark.fm, and place it as the first

file in your book. Alternately, you can draw a text frame in the margin

on the first page of your book.

2. Place the following text in the text frame:

/pdfmark where {userdict /pdfmark /cleartomark load put} ifelse

/DOCINFO pdfmark

3. Now Ctrl+click to select the text frame and then right-click. Choose

Object Properties.

4. In the Object Properties dialog, select the PostScript Code checkbox.

Click Set. This will load the copyright info into the PDF when you

create it.
