So either save as version 1.3 or 1.4 (which will produce larger files), or add the metadata after the fact with a tool that does an append-only update rather than rewriting the entire file. pdftk does rewrites, Acrobat does appends unless you "Save as".
Basically, if a simple search of the file reveals an uncompressed object containing the strings /Title and /Author (followed by either plain text in () or hex-encoded Unicode text in <>), the Kindle metadata scanner can see them.

Thank you for your replying.And I've tried to save pdf file as older version such as 1.3 and 1.4.But kindle still can't read metadata of pdf correctly.I've also tried to append data by using "Save as" in Acrobat.Unfortunately it didn't work too.
Is there any step I did wrong?Can you send a pdf sample which kindle can read metadata correctly to me?My email is turygo#gmail.com Thank you very much
