+=head1 NAME
+
+Image::ExifTool::WritePDF.pl - Write PDF meta information
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+These routines are autoloaded by Image::ExifTool::PDF.
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This file contains routines to write PDF metadata.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+When writing a PDF, exiftool does not modify the existing data.  Instead,
+the PDF file is appended with an incremental update which can easily be
+removed to revert the file (by using ExifTool to delete the special
+C<PDF-update> pseudo group).
