Extract dc metadata from pdf

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

Hello,

I would like to extract the dc metadata from a pdf file. Using the getByDefaultMetadataProperties, I am able to extract the creatorTool, creatorDate, ModDate, ModCreator, and Identifier, but I would like to extract all the dc metadata my document contains and this is not all of it.
So I tried using xmpMetadata.getXmpMetadata() but it returns an Object and I don’t know what to cast it into to get the right string. I also tried using xmpMetadata.getValues which seems to hold all the information I need when looking at it with the debugger but it is all obfuscated and I can’t access the data in there.

Here is my code:
PdfXmpMetadata xmpMetadata = new PdfXmpMetadata(uploadContext.document.getPdfDocument());
System.out.println("creatorTool: " + xmpMetadata.getByDefaultMetadataProperties(DefaultMetadataProperties.CreatorTool)); // OK
System.out.println("identifier: " + xmpMetadata.getByDefaultMetadataProperties(DefaultMetadataProperties.Identifier)); // OK
System.out.println("dc:format: " + xmpMetadata.getXmpMetadata(“dc:format”));// NOPE
System.out.println("dc:title: " + xmpMetadata.getXmpMetadata(“dc:title”));
System.out.println("dc:creator: " + xmpMetadata.getXmpMetadata(“dc:creator”));// NOPE
System.out.println("dc:description: " + xmpMetadata.getXmpMetadata(“dc:description”));// NOPE
System.out.println("dc:description: " + xmpMetadata.getXmpMetadata(“dc:rights”));// NOPE
System.out.println("xmp:CreatorTool: " + xmpMetadata.getXmpMetadata(“xmp:CreatorTool”)); // this does not work either

Thanks,

Camille.
