When entering a comma-separated list of keywords in the document properties, the whole list of keywords is put into double-quotes (it seems) when a PDF document is created. Effectively this make one keyword from the list of keywords. That is, pdf:Keywords has just one value, and (if the subject was empty) there is a single value in the Dublin Core dc:subject (bag container) showing the same double-quoted string. If I remove the surrounding double-quotes in Adobe Acrobat, the dc:subject bag container shows one item per keyword.
I confirm the described behaviour with Version: 6.5.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: 89f0af144c18efafe2573801641689a1432c0cae CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 18362; UI render: GL; VCL: win; Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI-Language: en-GB Calc: threaded
Dear Ulrich Windl, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo'; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone! Warm Regards, QA Team MassPing-UntouchedBug
Testing in: Version: 7.4.7.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 40(Build:2) CPU threads: 2; OS: Linux 6.6; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Debian package version: 4:7.4.7-1+deb12u5 Calc: threaded Using keywords "one, two, three of a kind", the resulting PDF has <pdf:Keywords>one, two, three of a kind</pdf:Keywords> and <</Keywords<FEFF006F006E0065002C002000740077006F002C0020007400680072006500650020006F0066002000610020006B0069006E0064> /Creator<FEFF005700720069007400650072> /Producer<FEFF004C0069006200720065004F0066006600690063006500200037002E0034> /CreationDate(D:20250101215124+01'00')>> So I's assume it's fixed for Linux at least.
On Linux, I tested with a, b, c, the PDF keywords are a, b, c. Version: 25.2.0.1 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: ddb2a7ea3a8857aae619555f1a8743e430e146c9 CPU threads: 16; OS: Linux 6.8; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: ro-RO (ro_RO.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded On Windows, I tested with 24.8.3.2 and the result is "a, b, c", so, it is NOT solved on Windows.
