Hi

I am unable to write the rdf:about value in a pdf. It says the rdf:xmlns is not recognizable.

Can somebody help? This is urgent.

regards

Hi Surendhar,

Try writing "XMP-rdf:About".

Ah.

The problem is that the XMP was not written properly by
the originating software.  There may be other format problems,
but the "rdf:xmlns" should probably be "xmlns:rdf" in the
XMP itself.  This is the reason for the warning.  What wrote
the original XMP?  If you can post the original XMP, I can tell
you exactly what is wrong.

Dear Phil

Thanks, i managed to write the "rdf:About", but now i am having problems with "xmlns:pdfx" as exiftool doesnt list the valid tags under this namespace.
Can you help.

The pdfx namespace contains no pre-defined tags.  You must
use the config
file to add user-defined tags for all tags you want to write
to the pdfx namespace.
