Metadata is additional information about the output. In 51黑料不打烊 Experience Manager Guides, you can pass on the existing metadata or create custom metadata tags. You can pass on metadata to AEM, PDF, HTML5, EPUB, and Custom format outputs using DITA-OT publishing.

There are two ways to pass on the metadata to the Output using DITA-OT:

Using Map console

Perform the following steps to pass on the metadata to the output using DITA-OT publishing:

  1. Open the DITA map file in map console for which you want to pass the metadata to the DITA-OT.

  2. Select and open an output preset to which you want to pass the metadata fields. For example, select PDF output preset. Ensure that it is created using the DITA-OT option.

  3. From the File properties dropdown select the metadata that you want to pass to DITA-OT publishing.

    Properties dropdown lists both the custom and the default properties. For example, in the above screenshot dc:description, dc:language, dc:title, and docstate are the default properties.

    note note
    NOTE
    These properties are picked from the metadataList file available at the following location:/libs/fmdita/config/metadataList. By default, there are four properties listed in this file- dc:description, dc:language, dc:title, and docstate.

    This file can be overlaid at: /apps/fmdita/config/metadataList.
