Hi, I was curious if anyone is incorporating a step where you embed metadata into PDFs submitted to your repositories--particularly in cases where you are batch loading them? I'm researching potential tools for doing so (both Doc Info and XMP metadata), for material that we are batch loading in DSpace. We want to ensure that PDFs we load in a batch fashion are as usable as they can be, and from what we've seen so far, that would include embedding metadata in the PDFs themselves. I feel a bit like I'm following something down a rabbit hole, with all the reading I've done today, so I'm hoping that hearing what others are doing will help further direct our research. Thanks for any help you can provide, either for further reading, or for tools you might use.
