When I look at the propoerties in Acrobat reader I see my title and author.
When I use a hexadecimal editor on the same file I find <dc:title><rdf:Alt><rdf:li xml:lang='x-default'>100% ingles 2007.qxd</rdf:li></rdf:Alt></dc:title><dc:creator><rdf:Seq><rdf:li>User8 </rdf:li></rdf:Seq></dc:creator></rdf ....

Apparently the internal info in the PDF is wrong. How can I change it? With a normal PDF editor I already changed the title and author but it did not change the above info in the file.

Or is there a way to tell Calibre to not use the internal info?
