ability to create PDF's with custom properties like it is working for Word

When generating word documents it is possible to add file properties like e.g. Tags, Keywords, ... as well as custom properties to it. If pdf's are generated then only file properties can be written but no custom properties! Unfortunately the exchange of documents to e.g. customer or vendors is exclusively done in pdf format. Therefore it is not possible to add such additional information in custom properties as they will not appear in the pdf itself.

The request is to enhance the RPE that custom properties can be printed in pdf's.

    This idea/RFE is implemented as part of PUB 7.0.3 M25 and PUB is now supporting custom properties for the PDF documents.

    As part of the review process, we strive to be transparent about our intentions with each enhancement suggestion. The IBM Engineering team has reviewed this idea, and based on our understanding, it is accepted as an uncommitted candidate.
