With the exception of XMP metadata, Switch can not modify a PDF file directly. It needs another program such as Pitstop. If you want to write a private key into a PDF you will need a specialized tool such as pdflib or a customized version of an open source tool.

There is an "XMP inject" element which does exactly what you want. However, contrary to what you may think "XMP inject" does not directly inject an external XML into a PDF. When you look at the properties of "XMP inject" you will see that it injects a dataset, so your XMP has to be a dataset first.



In other words, after the transformation you pick up your XML so it becomes a dataset and then use "XMP inject". Done.



Here is an example of what your XMP should look like:









Freddy

Pieters

Enfocus









When the structure of your XMP is different, it will also not work.
