Script to show who exported PDF?

[cbishop01]

Is there a script to embed in the PDF via Note or layer who exported a file?  I have a script in indesign that displays this but when you export the PDF it of course does not show up since its on the paste board.  I dont want it to add size via WxL to the label i just want it there so its know who sent files out.  Is this even possible?

var kws = app.activeDocument.metadataPreferences.keywords;
app.activeDocument.metadataPreferences.keywords = kws.concat ( app.userName );

This is perfect thanks. I have one question.  WHen i change keywords to author it does not display the persons name anymore instead of the name it put NaN.  do you know why this is?

Why, no that doesn't make sense to me. It's true that "author" expects a string but even using concat shouldn't force a type conversion to Number.

Anyway, try this instead:

app.activeDocument.metadataPreferences.author = app.userName;

Ok i was just wondering. That fixed it.  Either way both correct.  Thanks for coming to the rescue again.   I think what was going on was that i kept the app.userName inside the ( ).  when i tried it before.

Thanks Again
