      use the "Control-D | Custom" command to modify those attributes




[Leonard asked:] 

      Are you talking about the Advanced or Custom panels?




I am talking about the "Custom" panel.

AFAIK, anything that the user types in that panel, ends up being inserted in the PDF file literally, as a string.

I would hate having to tell my users:

"Oh guys, BTW, whenever you type a date, you have to type it like this:

D:20050424100720-04'30'

In my apps, I have my own interfaces to enter metadata dates into my PDF files:

(1) Programmatically, at file creation, the obscure format is irrelevant.

(2) During GUI interaction, I use a date picker.

In fact, what I really would prefer to do is adding a date picker to the Acrobat "Custom Panel".

Thanks,

-Ramon
