Description
===========

XMP (eXtensible Metadata Platform) is a mechanism proposed by Adobe
for embedding document metadata within the document itself.  The
metadata are designed to be easy to extract, even by programs that are
oblivious to the document's file format.  Most of Adobe's applications
store XMP metadata when saving files.  Now, with the hyperxmp package,
it is trivial for LaTeX document authors to store XMP metadata in
their documents as well.

hyperxmp integrates seamlessly with hyperref and requires virtually no
modifications to documents that already exploit hyperref's mechanisms
for specifying PDF metadata.  The current version of hyperxmp can
embed the following metadata as XMP: title, authors, primary author's
title or position, metadata writer, subject/summary, keywords,
copyright, license URL, document base URL, document identifier and
instance identifier, language, source file name, PDF generating tool,
PDF version, and contact telephone number/postal address/email
address/URL.  hyperxmp is compatible with pdflatex,
latex+dvips+ps2pdf, latex+dvipdfm, xelatex, and lualatex.


Installation
============

There's nothing special about building hyperxmp.  To create
hyperxmp.sty simply run "tex hyperxmp.ins".  Install hyperxmp.sty
somewhere where LaTeX can find it.  See
http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=instpackages for
general information about installing packages.

hy­per­xmp – Embed XMP meta­data within a LaTeX doc­u­ment

XMP (eXten­si­ble Me­ta­data Plat­form) is a mech­a­nism pro­posed by Adobe for em­bed­ding doc­u­ment meta­data within the doc­u­ment it­self. The meta­data is de­signed to be easy to ex­tract, even by pro­grams that are obliv­i­ous to the doc­u­ment's file for­mat. Most of Adobe's ap­pli­ca­tions store XMP meta­data when sav­ing files. Now, with the hy­per­xmp pack­age, it is triv­ial for LaTeX doc­u­ment au­thors to store XMP meta­data in their doc­u­ments as well.
Ver­sion 2.2 of the pack­age added sup­port for the IPTC Photo Me­ta­data schema. It al­lows \xm­p­comma and \xm­pquote to be used in any hy­per­xmp op­tion, not only those that re­quire spe­cial treat­ment of com­mas. And it in­tro­duces an \xm­pline­sep macro that con­trols how mul­ti­line fields are rep­re­sented in the XMP packet.
The pack­age in­te­grates seam­lessly with hy­per­ref and re­quires vir­tu­ally no mod­i­fi­ca­tions to doc­u­ments that al­ready ex­ploit hy­per­ref's mech­a­nisms for spec­i­fy­ing PDF meta­data. The cur­rent ver­sion of hy­per­xmp can em­bed the fol­low­ing meta­data as XMP: ti­tle, au­thors, pri­mary au­thor's ti­tle or po­si­tion, meta­data writer, sub­ject/sum­mary, key­words, copy­right, li­cense URL, doc­u­ment base URL, doc­u­ment iden­ti­fier and in­stance iden­ti­fier, lan­guage, source file name, PDF gen­er­at­ing tool, PDF ver­sion, and con­tact tele­phone num­ber/postal ad­dress/email ad­dress/URL. Hyper­xmp cur­rently em­beds XMP only within PDF doc­u­ments; it is com­pat­i­ble with pdfla­tex, xe­la­tex, la­tex+dvipdfm, and la­tex+dvips+ps2pdf.
