SYNOPSIS

WA2LWinTools/etc/metadata.suffix.meta

WA2LWinTools/etc/metadata.default.meta

AVAILABILITY

DESCRIPTION

FILEFORMAT

You are free how to define the contents of the metadata template. However you should keep the format:

Field Name     : @FIELD NAME@

to allow further processing of the file. Number of spaces between the Field Name, the colon (:) and the field data place holder @NAME@ can be changed.

The [GENERAL] section title should not be removed to allow further processing of the file. The fields within the section can be changed.

You should not change the [IDENTIFICATION] section (except for the number of spaces between the fields and the separating colon) to allow the metadata command to properly identify the file in future releases of the WA2L/WinTools package.

The section order is not important, but the sections must start in the leftmost column. Additional sections can be defined as needed.

[RAWMETADATA]

@_ALL@

You don't have to define all fields you can think about that could be useful in any situation in a template file, you can add a specific field also simply when you are entering the meta data for a certain document.

OPTIONS

@NAME@

meta field name as resolved from file. The NAME has to be specified in upper case always, also when the meta data field contains upper/lower case.

The available field names can be seen in the [RAWMETADATA] section when using the metadata command and using the built in default template from lib/metadata.default.meta.

@_GUID@

a GUID number.

@_PAGES@

number of pages from fields Pages, Page Count or Slides. Prefer this option over the Pages/Page Count/Slides fields to always get a page number independent of the FASTPDFRESOLUTION=... setting in the metadata.cfg file and the file type.

@_FILENAME@

file name including path.

@_FILE@

file name without path.

@_DIRECTORY@

directory (path) of the file name.

@_SUFFIX@

suffix of the file.

@_CHECKSUM@

file checksum.

@_TIMESTAMP@

time stamp of meta data file creation.

@_ALL@

all resolved meta data of file specified as metadata command option. The meta data contained in a file is highly dependent on the file type and the software that created the file.

FILES

lib/metadata.default.meta

built in default template for all file types (=file suffixes) for which no specific metadata.suffix.meta exists.

Do not change this file, it will be overwritten when upgrading the WA2L/WinTools package, create your own metadata.default.meta file in the etc/ directory.

etc/metadata.default.meta

default template for all file types (=file suffixes) for which no specific metadata.suffix.meta exists.

etc/metadata.suffix.meta

file type (=file suffix) specific template.
