There are several settings that can affect this metadata depending of the book's format.

Calibre will omit the CDETYPE metadata if "Enable sharing of book contents..." is set in the AZW3 or MOBI output section of conversion options, resulting in a personal doc by default. It can also force the CDETYPE to be a personal doc (PDOC) if the "Personal Doc tag" setting is used in MOBI output or the "Create a personal document instead of a book" in KFX output.
