Question

Variable(s) in metadata Title field don't export to PDF properties

Not sure if this is how it's supposed to work, but if I select a variable for the Metadata Title in my PDF output preset, and generate the PDF, the PDF's Title property just contains the variable name and not its actual value. Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

I just created MyVariable with a value of Peter. In the Document Properties it is showing the value. Note that I have applied Update 5 but you are on Update 4.

Thanks Peter. I'll try it again when I've updated to 5.
