Hi @d-kononov ,
Thank you for your question. This might be related to #192 , which might answer your question.
As stated over there:
The PDF specifications don't support UTF-8. Multi-lingual documents are handled by using Fong mappings where ANSI letters are mapped to the international glyph.
However, the title information has no font and no mapping, so I think reader software reads the title string as ANSI letters (maybe adding a UTF-8 BOM will fix that, but I'm not remotely sure) ...
... anyway, this was the case before PDF 2.0. I have no idea how the new standard looks like because it isn't available for free.
I have no idea how to change that.
Kindly, Boaz Segev.
I realize this issue is closed but I ran into the same thing and solved it by encoding the string as UTF-16:
pdf.to_pdf({ producer: producer.encode('utf-16') })
The value then shows up correctly in exiftool and Acrobat file properties. https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/245969 https://stackoverflow.com/a/3063966
