SetCustomInformationA
Document properties
Description
The trailing A denotes the ANSI (char) DLL entry point; the ActiveX/COM surface exposes only the Unicode form. Behaviour is identical to SetCustomInformation and string arguments are interpreted using the current SetAnsiMode code page
This function is used to store custom metadata in the document. These values can later be read from the document with the GetCustomInformation function. The data is stored in the Document Information Dictionary. Private content or structural information should rather be stored in the Document Catalog using the SetCatalogInformation function.
