PDF metadata

You can include metadata when generating PDFs using either our template endpoints or HTML to PDF endpoints.

PDF Metadata options

Here's a list of all the optional parameters that you can send as an object "metadata" while using our endpoints:

Property name	Type	Description
title	string	A human-readable name for the document, like a book title. default: the name of the template
author	string	The individual or organization that created the document. default: pdforge
subject	string	A brief description of the document’s topic.
keywords	string[]	A list of keywords describing the content.
creator	string	The original software that created the content before it was turned into a PDF. default: pdforge

These values will appear in the PDF’s file details. On macOS, you can check them by right-clicking the file and selecting Get Info in Finder.

The only field you can’t override is the Encoding software. It’s automatically set by our system.
