SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional lets users read or write custom properties of PDFs using the PDF plug-in.
The PDF plug-in also maps any user-defined custom properties that are
written in the Custom tab of a PDF.
An administrator can map a variable to a supported Block name and
Attribute name for a PDF. When a user adds a PDF to a vault and updates custom
properties in the PDF, the updated custom properties appear on the PDF file data card.
Similarly, when a user updates variable values on the PDF file data card, the mapped
property values are updated in the PDF.
