How to properly refer to a document's template used via metadata?

I would like a document's metadata to include information which template('s version) it is based on. What is the proper property for this information? Possible candidates so far:

  • xmpMM:OriginalDocumentID since the template is the base. However, "original document" usually rather refers to e.g. the RAW file a JPEG was created from
  • xmpMM:DerivedFrom, but that is a stretch to my understanding of derived work. Side-question: Can a document have more than one ancestor?
  • xmpMM:Ingredients, which rather seems to be for e.g. included images
  • xmpMM:Pantry - frankly, I don't understand its purpose
  • dc:conformsTo "An established standard to which the described resource conforms." Sounds rather like an ISO or such..

XMP would also allow you to specify your own category.

Thanks, good point. I would prefer that as a last resort though and was hoping there already exists an officially designated property for this.

I don't thinks so that it exists.

Are you trying to store your documents in a specific file management system to use the Metadata you want to add?

Can you describe what you are trying to achieve? your end goal

I'm planning to write a script that checks whether a document is based on the most recent version of the template. Of course I could simply use a script label, but since the template version is relevant metadata, I might as well put it somewhere more visible.
