Description
===========

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.  hyperxmp can embed a wide variety of
metadata as XMP, including the list of authors, document title,
contact information (telephone number, postal address, email address,
etc.), copyright statement, keywords, natural language, and much more.
hyperxmp is compatible with pdflatex, lualatex, xelatex,
latex+dvipdfm, and latex+dvips+Distiller.

Installation
============

To create hyperxmp.sty simply run "tex hyperxmp.ins".  Install
hyperxmp.sty somewhere where LaTeX can find it.  See
https://texfaq.org/FAQ-installthings for general information about
installing packages.

Building hyperxmp.pdf is a little more involved:

        lualatex hyperxmp.dtx
        lualatex hyperxmp.dtx
        makeindex -s gind-hyxmp.ist hyperxmp.idx -o hyperxmp.ind
        makeindex -s gglo-hyxmp.ist hyperxmp.glo -o hyperxmp.gls
        lualatex hyperxmp.dtx
        lualatex hyperxmp.dtx
        perl add_byteCount.pl hyperxmp.pdf
