Community Beginner ,

Hi,

I generated a pdf file using Adobe FrameMaker 11. After the pdf is generated, the title field in the Document Properties window (File > Properties) displays as "Untitled" instead of the original file name. How do i retain the same title name as the file name?

Please help.

FM uses the name of the file if no specific File Info fields are filled in.

Hi Arnis,

As mentioned by you, i have not mentioned any name in the File > File Info field. But the pdf file is not retaining/capturing the file name of the FM file after it is generated. Hence in the Document properties of the pdf file,the Title field shows "Untitled."  Please help.

Hi,

To show the the title or the file name, you need to tell Acrobat what you want to show:

So:

  1. In Acrobat, click File > Properties.
  2. In the Document Properties window, select the Initial View tab.
  3. Click on the Show list box, and select Document Title.
  4. Click OK to close the Document Properties window.
  5. Save the file.

Note: you can review/set the file title in the Description tab

Hi,

Thanks for your response. But this response also did not help me. I think i will have to change some settings in FM for the file name/title name to appear in the pdf output.

Regards,

Sneha

There was a similar discussion some months ago. Someone had problems deleting the content of the file info:

I do not know whether this applies to your problem as well.

Did you name the FM file before creating the PDF?

Are you changing the name of the PDF file from the FM filename when you create it?

Can you post a screen shot of the Acrobat Properties panel (use the camera icon in the Forum interface)?

How exactly are you creating the PDF - SaveAs PDF or by printing to the AdobeePDF printer instance?

What joboptions are being used for the PDF creation?

Have you checked the FileInfo fields in the FM file to see if they are actually empty?
