Bug 243717 pdf file creator information not customizable
Reported: 2008-08-11 05:15:19 | Status: resolved fixed

Build ID: I20070625-1500 Steps To Reproduce: Some properties which appear in generated pdf file has been hard coded. For example in windows xp OS if you right click on a generated pdf file: Right click menu -> properties - second tab i.e. "PDF" Application: BIRT Report Engine 2.2.2 using iText 1.5.2 PDF Producer: iText 1.5.2 (release for Eclipse/BIRT by) It looks that it has been hard coded in org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.emitter.pdf.PDFPageDevice.PDFPageDevice(...) String creator = "BIRT Report Engine " + BundleVersionUtil.getBundleVersion( "org.eclipse.birt.report.engine" ) + " using iText " + BundleVersionUtil.getBundleVersion( "com.lowagie.itext" ); doc.addCreator( creator ); The strings could be taken from properties file so that user can provide nl fragment and override them as needed.
