reading/writing xmp metadatas on pdf files through pypdf

I can read xmp metadatas through pypdf with this code:

from pypdf import PdfReader

a = PdfReader("file.pdf")
b = a.xmp_metadata
c = b.pdf_keywords

But is this the best way?

And if I don't use the pdf_keywords property?

Is there any way to set these metadatas with pypdf?

Solution

  • As far as I can see, this is the best way to do so - and there is no way to change the metadata with pyPDF.
