Add array items in XMP metadata of EPS| JavaScript

To add array items in XMP metadata of EPS file, it is necessary to do several steps:

  1. Create file reader ‘const file_reader = new FileReader();’ and read file ‘file_reader.readAsArrayBuffer(e.target.files[0]);’.
  2. On load event handler call AsposeXMPAddArrayItem and pass the file content, his name, and the result file name to it.
  3. If the EPS file doesn’t contain XMP metadata, we get a new one filled with values from PS metadata comments (%%Creator, %%CreateDate, %%Title, etc).
  4. The result JSON contains the file name in fileNameResult and gets metadata in the XMP element.
  5. You can download files by using the DownloadFile function: ‘DownloadFile(JSON.fileNameResult, “image/pdf”);’ and display the result ‘document.getElementById(‘output’).textContent = JSON.XMP;’


The following code snippet shows how to add array items in XMP metadata in an EPS file in JavaScript:

 1  var fXMPAddArrayItem = function (e) {
 2    const file_reader = new FileReader();
 3    file_reader.onload = (event) => {
 4      const input = [
 5        ["dc:title", "NewTitle"],
 6        ["dc:creator", "NewCreator"]
 7      ];
 8      const JSON = XMPAddArrayItem(event.target.result, e.target.files[0].name, e.target.files[0].name + "_out.eps", input);
 9      if (JSON.errorCode == 0) {
10          DownloadFile(JSON.fileNameResult, "image/eps");
11      }
12      else 
13        document.getElementById('output').textContent = JSON.errorText;
14    }
15    file_reader.readAsArrayBuffer(e.target.files[0]);
16  }
