CTAN update: hyperxmp

Scott Pakin submitted an update to the hyperxmp package. Version number: 3.5 License type: lppl1.3c Summary description: Embed XMP metadata within a LaTeX document Announcement text:

---

XMP (eXtensible Metadata Platform) is a mechanism proposed by Adobe for embedding document metadata within the document itself. The metadata are designed to be easy to extract, even by programs that are oblivious to the document's file format. Most of Adobe's applications store XMP metadata when saving files. Now, with the hyperxmp package, it is trivial for LaTeX document authors to store XMP metadata in their documents as well. hyperxmp integrates seamlessly with hyperref and requires virtually no modifications to documents that already exploit hyperref's mechanisms for specifying PDF metadata. The current version of hyperxmp can embed the following metadata as XMP: authors, base URL, contact telephone number/postal address/email address/URL, copyright statement, creation date, document identifier, document instance identifier, document type, file format, keywords, language, LaTeX file name, license URL, metadata writer, PDF version, PDF-generating tool, PDF/A compliance level and version, primary author's position or title, subject/summary, and title. hyperxmp is compatible with pdflatex, latex+dvips+ps2pdf, latex+dvipdfm, xelatex, and lualatex. Version 3.5 of hyperxmp gives the user the ability to explicitly specify a UUID for the document rather than let hyperxmp generate it randomly.
