Ha! I pretty much just found out that there is no genuine isbn data in a pdf.

I found a way to make one though, with pdftk! So I can now see isbn numbers in windows explorer, and a few other metadata editors.

Tools like calibre don't directly read my ISBN data as real isbn's though. Still, my ebook collection looks about a million times more organized than it was a couple of weeks ago!

Thanks for the info, I am slowly starting to understand this metadata stuff.
