What it does
Allows you to make selections based on document info, such as the title, subject, author,
keywords, producer or creator of the PDF. You can specify where the information must be taken
from, and what the expected value is.
Note: From version 12 update 2 onwards, you can use regular expressions to define the value in
the Compare with field (if you select Equals/Does not
equal as operator method).
Example
Suppose you want to select a document of which the author is Anne Banks. It doesn't matter
where this information is taken from.
Attributes:
- Document info: author
- Read value from: any metadata location
Note: If you select Both metadata locations, the name of the author
will be searched for in both the XMP metadata stream and the info dictionary; if you select
Most recent metadata location, only the most recently changed
metadata location will be checked.
- Operator method: equals
- Compare with: Anne Banks
If you are not sure about the spelling of the name Anne (spelled Ann or Anne?), you
could select the Use regular expressions checkbox and enter "Ann(e)?
Banks" in the Compare with field.
