Hi, I'have a program that generate a pdf with Aoache fop. I'm not very familiar with it but I want to hide some Metadata like producer on the properties tab from the pdf.
I'm trying tk do it using UserAgent ( useragent.setproducer(**) ) but it doesn't work. Any Idea please or example ?

What about setProducer("redacted");

or include some other text in there but not the empty string

I can only type it or take a foto

#

It's readable?

harsh holly
#

Do you have a PDFDocument instance?

icy sedge
#

After I execute the applikation a pdf doc is generated
Is that what do you mean?

#

As I understood the code transform xml to a pdf

harsh holly
#

where are you generating the PDF?

#

ah ok

#

what's the package of Fop?

icy sedge
#

Org.apache.fop.apps.Fop

#

What does userAgent.getProducer() return?

icy sedge
#

I asume the default value= the software version . But I'm checking now with syso if it return the same value as in the pdf properties

harsh holly
#

I meant after setting it

#

lile first set it and then get it

#

and check if it's there

icy sedge
#

Ok

icy sedge
#

Sorry I had to build 3 times
So after the set I get the new value

harsh holly
#

and it still isn't added to the PDF?

#

what does fob.getProducer() return?

Also you might want to use a debugger

#

it might show you more information

#

oh that was removed already?

icy sedge
#

Yes there are some default methods and getUserAgent

icy sedge
#

I will try to debug . I don't have any other Idea why it doesn't work

harsh holly
#

maybe you could try using pdf:Producer in your XML?

icy sedge
harsh holly
#

"Internal" in the Category column means that the user should not set this value. It is set by the application.
hm

#

seems like you might not be able to overwrite it

#

maybe you can use a debugger for finding out where the producer comes from

icy sedge
#

I have not seen the note 🙄

harsh holly
#

i.e. you load the document after saving it and then set the producer

icy sedge
#

There is also a .xconf file how are the fonts settigs . Bjt I don't now how to add another to hide peroducer and if this is even possible
