DisplayDocTitle Key Is Not Set after Converting PPTX to PDF in C#

We have a problem, when we try to convert a pptx to pdf with PdfCompliance PdfA1b.
The DisplayDocTitle is not set in the output pdf.

As I understand this entry in the forum, it is currently not possible and necessary to set DisplayDocTitle directly in pptx:

But when we try to convert our pptx to a PDF with a certain PdfComliance, the title is not set correctly.

I created a test for this and tested it also in LinqPad:

using System.IO;
using Aspose.Pdf;

void Main()
{
	var test = new RegressionTest.PDF.DocumentPropertiesTests();
		test.PptxToPdfCheckDisplayDocTitle(Aspose.Slides.Export.PdfCompliance.PdfA1a);
		test.PptxToPdfCheckDisplayDocTitle(Aspose.Slides.Export.PdfCompliance.PdfA1b);
		test.PptxToPdfCheckDisplayDocTitle(Aspose.Slides.Export.PdfCompliance.PdfUa);
}

namespace RegressionTest.PDF
{
    [TestClass]
    public class DocumentPropertiesTests
    {		
        private const string pptxFileName = @"C:\\temp\\PptxToPdfA1bDisplayDocTitleBug\\CultureChartsPptxTest.pptx";

        [DataTestMethod]
        [DataRow(Aspose.Slides.Export.PdfCompliance.PdfA1a)]
        [DataRow(Aspose.Slides.Export.PdfCompliance.PdfA1b)]
        [DataRow(Aspose.Slides.Export.PdfCompliance.PdfUa)]
        public void PptxToPdfCheckDisplayDocTitle(Aspose.Slides.Export.PdfCompliance pdfCompliance)
        {
            const string pptxToPdfFileName = "TransformedCultureChartsPptxTest.pdf";

            var presentation = new Aspose.Slides.Presentation(pptxFileName);
            presentation.DocumentProperties.Title = "Simple Chart";

            var saveOptions = new Aspose.Slides.Export.PdfOptions()
            {
                SaveMetafilesAsPng = false,
                Compliance = pdfCompliance
            };

            using (var pdfStream = new MemoryStream())
            {
                presentation.Save(pdfStream, Aspose.Slides.Export.SaveFormat.Pdf, saveOptions);

                pdfStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
                using (FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(pptxToPdfFileName, FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write))
                {
                    pdfStream.WriteTo(fileStream);
                }
            }

            var pdfDocument = new Document(pptxToPdfFileName);
			
			System.Console.WriteLine("PdfCompliance {0} - DisplayDocTitle {1}", pdfCompliance.ToString(), pdfDocument.DisplayDocTitle);
        }
    }
}

The output is:

The used pptx file is:
CultureChartsPptxTest.zip (45,9 KB)

Is this a bug in Aspose.Slides or do you know a solution to this problem?

We tried it out with Aspose.Slides 24.12.0 and 22.2.0.

Thank you for your help
