PDF/UA XMP metadata missing so far
Steps to reproduce
Compile a minimal file like minimal-pdftex.tex
from this repository and run it through PAC3. The validator will give an error "Metadata->missing PDF/UA tag". Indeed when you watch in Acrobat->file properties->metadata you see it's not there.
Expected behaviour
A specific metadata is mandatory for PDF/UA according to ISO 14289‑1.
Comment
Scott from hxperxmp
is working on implementing this in his package. So I suggest we don't waste time here and wait for it to complete. We can then add something like \Requirepackage{hyperxmp}
Seems like this metadata is needed for compliance with the accessible PDF standard.
I agree that it's better to wait for the hyperxmp
package for a fix. Proposing to park this in the backlog and revisit it later.
hyperxmp
is fixed now! I will update the minimal-pdftex.tex
soon. However I do not recommend claiming a valid UA document now since the tagging problem is not solved.
