I think it might only be obvious to someone who's done a lot of work with
PDF files and external parsers or converters. I had thought of adding that
capability to conv_doc.pl, but as I don't use those fields in my PDFs, I
didn't think it was worth my time to do it. I suspect other users may feel
differently, so your patches would probably be appreciated.
The author and maintainer of doc2html is David Adams
<D.J.Adams@soton.ac.uk>, so you may want to give him a copy of your
changes, and/or post the patch to htdig@htdig.org.
