I have some ebooks in pdf format that I want to put in a calibre Library. The Extract ISBN Plugin and Download Metadata command helps to supply Metadata information in the calibre database, but I would like to use Adobe Acrobat to include Book Title, Author, ISBN, Publisher, Publication Date, and sometimes other information in the pdf file itself (rather that just in the calibre database).

Within calibre, can I Open a pdf file with Acrobat, then edit the Metadata and Save from Acrobat, or does this screw up the calibre database?
