Syntax
Remarks
Example
See Also

Sets up a new producer of the currently loaded PDF document into the document information dictionary and in the document catalog's metadata as well.

If the loaded PDF document contains metadata stored in the Metadata entry in the document catalog, the newly specified Producer property is synchronized with those metadata. That means, you will be able to see the changed value of this property using the Acrobat's Document Properties dialogue box.

Syntax

public void SetProducer( 
   string Producer
)

public procedure SetProducer( 
    Producer: String
);

public function SetProducer( 
   Producer : String
);

public: void SetProducer( 
   string* Producer
)

public:
void SetProducer( 
   String^ Producer
)

'Declaration
 
Public Sub SetProducer( _
   ByVal Producer As String _
)

Parameters

Producer: A new value of the Producer property as a string.

Remarks

This method is only allowed for use with non-encrypted documents.

It is recommend to use the GdPicturePDF.GetStat method to identify the specific reason for the method's failure, if any.

Just to remind you that the newly specified Producer property is synchronized with existing metadata, if any are included in the loaded PDF document.
