Create document properties

You can add custom document properties that store specific types of metadata, such as the version number or company name, in a PDF. Properties you create appear in the Document Properties dialog box. Properties you create must have unique names that do not appear on the other tabs in the Document Properties dialog box.

  1. Choose File > Properties, and then select Custom.
  2. To add a property, type the name and value, and then click Add.
  3. To change the properties, do any of the following, and then click OK:

    • To edit a property, select it, change the Value, and then click Change.

    • To delete a property, select it and click Delete.

    To change the name of a custom property, delete the property and create a new custom property with the name you want.
