✨ NAME ✨

Meet hyperxmp-add-bytecount, the tool that adds or updates the byteCount specification in an XMP packet inside a PDF file. 🎀

📜 SYNOPSIS 📜

hyperxmp-add-bytecount [options] filename.pdf...

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so hyperxmp-add-bytecount goes into your PDF file(s) and sets the byteCount in the XMP packet to match the file size 🦋 It can add a new one or update an existing one, bestie.

The XMP packet has to be of, or compatible with, the format you get from a document built with the LaTeX hyperxmp package. Literally that's the vibe it's looking for ✨

If the tool can't find a compatible XMP packet in your PDF, it leaves the file totally alone. No changes, no drama. 🙈

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

Version 1.1, last updated 22 November 2020, from HYPERXMP-ADD-BYTECOUNT(1). Stay iconic, bestie 💜🧚
