Default Convert custom document properties to pdf

Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately it did not work - the "custom"
properties still do not transfer to the pdf.

Very frustrating....

Have you changed the "Print what" under the Print dialog to "Document
properties" and then maybe print to PDF, and not use the PDF convertor?
I don't have 2007 but this works in 2003.
Hope this helps

I have a Word 2007 document which has the "general" document properties (i.e.
Author, Title, etc.), but I have also added a "custom" document property
("Department"). When I save this document as .pdf the "general" properties
transfer to the pdf, BUT the "custom" property does not.

I have tried this with first saving as both .doc and .docx, and with both
"save as .pdf" settings (standard and minimum size). I am using Word 2007 SP1
MSO (12.0.6213.1000).

ANY suggestions / help on how to get the custom properties to the pdf file
would be so appreciated. Thanks in advance.
