Adding a Title to a PDF file

[dvduval]

I find that all of my PDF files lack titles, but I can't seem to figure out how to give them a title tag so the title will display in the search results.
Anyone know the answer?

In Adobe Acrobat (the program, not Reader), go to...

File > Document Info > General

Under General, you will have access to...

1. Title
2. Subject
3. Author
4. Keywords

There other document specific features in there that you may want to utilize.

Pageoneresults is using Acrobat V4.
If you've got Acrobat 5 it's in File, Document Properties, Summary (or CTRL-D).

Also, make sure you save the PDF for the web - you don't generally need high resolution. Your site visitors will thank you for it.

Cool!

I knew there was an easy way.

I've been searching high and low for this!

Can I put in noindex/nofollow type instructions as well?

Thanks,

Chew

I am not aware of a way to do this that would have that information imbedded into the pdf itself. If you don't want the actual pdf indexed, you should disallow via your robots.txt file.
