What the file says it is, as opposed to what it draws: the title, description, keywords, language and authors that land in the PDF's document properties. A reader's Properties panel shows them, a search index reads them, a screen reader announces the language — and an AI consumer handed the file can tell what it is holding without parsing the page.

Nothing here appears on the page. PNG previews carry none of it (the format has no metadata channel), exactly as they carry no links.

Syntax

document:
  title: 請求書 {invoice.number}
  description: '{invoice.subject}（{billing.name} 様）'
  keywords: [請求書, invoice, '{invoice.number}']
  language: ja-JP
  authors: ['{issuer.name}']

Key	Type	Description
title	string	The document title. Unset → the template name:, then Shojiku Document.
description	string	A short summary (the PDF /Subject).
keywords	list of strings	Search keywords. Max 64 entries.
language	string	BCP 47 tag (ja-JP). Unset → defaults.locale.
authors	list of strings	Max 64 entries.

Every value takes {key} / {key:format} interpolation exactly like static text, resolved against top-level params. Unknown keys inside document: are parse errors (typo safety).

There is no bindings: map here, so an interpolation name must be inside the reference charset (A-Z a-z 0-9 _ .) — a non-ASCII params key cannot be referenced from document:, and writing one warns interpolation_key_charset like anywhere else.

Where each value goes

Key	PDF /Info	XMP	Also
title	/Title	dc:title
description	/Subject	dc:description
keywords	/Keywords (comma-joined)	pdf:Keywords
authors	/Author (comma-joined)	dc:creator
language	—	dc:language	the catalog /Lang, which is what assistive technology reads

Rules

• Blank is unset. A value that interpolates to nothing (a blank binding) writes nothing and reports nothing beyond the ordinary missing_data warning; an empty list entry is dropped.
• A rejected value is not replaced. The title → name and language → defaults.locale fallbacks cover an absent value only. If a value is rejected (below), the field is simply not written — a substituted value would hide the refusal behind plausible output.
• Rejections (each a warning of its own; the field is dropped and everything else still renders):
  • control characters in any value — they are invalid in the XMP packet whatever the escaping, and confuse readers in /Info;
  • a value over 2048 bytes after interpolation;
  • a language that is not [A-Za-z0-9-], or over 64 bytes. The tag is the one metadata value written into the XMP packet unescaped, so the charset is a hard requirement rather than tidiness.
• Over-long lists warn too_many_document_entries and only the first 64 entries are written.
• No creation date. creationDate is deliberately not authorable and none is written: a rendered timestamp would make the same inputs produce different bytes, and byte-identical output is what signing and verification rest on.

Limitations

• PDF only. PNG previews have no metadata channel, so nothing here is observable in a preview.
• keywords and authors are capped at 64 entries; only the first 64 are written (too_many_document_entries).
• Each value is capped at 2048 bytes, and language at 64 (document_metadata_too_long); control characters are refused (document_metadata_control_chars) and language must be a [A-Za-z0-9-] tag (invalid_document_language).

Diagnostics

Code	When
document_metadata_control_chars	a resolved value carries control characters
document_metadata_too_long	a resolved value is over the byte cap (2048; 64 for language)
invalid_document_language	language is not a [A-Za-z0-9-] tag
too_many_document_entries	keywords / authors over the 64-entry cap
missing_data	an interpolated key is not in params
interpolation_key_charset	a {…} name that cannot be an interpolation key

Capability key: template.document.metadata.
