We are storing Json string of an object to Keywords in PDF using C#. Json is duplicated as shown below in the Keywords section although it returns only one item when reading it back from the PDF.
Is it a known bug?
"{""AccountNumber"":""123456"",""PortfolioName"":""Portfolio1"",""LetterTemplateType"":""Template1"",""CreationDate"":""24/10/2023 12:19:07""}"; "{""AccountNumber"":""123456"",""PortfolioName"":""Portfolio1"",""LetterTemplateType"":""Template1"",""CreationDate"":""24/10/2023 12:19:07""}"

I dont have any test project for this. But if you add any json string to Keywords and view the PDF, you can see the duplicated Json as shown above.

How do you "add json string to Keywords"? And how do you "View the PDF"? And where do you see the duplicated Json as shown above?

I have used the below code to generate the PDF and added Json string to Keywords. Once the file is generated, please use Acrobat pdf reader to see the duplicated json in Keywords.
var pdfStream = new MemoryStream();
PdfDocument pdfDocument = new PdfDocument();
pdfDocument.Info.Keywords = "{\"AccountNumber\":\"123456\",\"PortfolioName\":\"Portfolio1\",\"LetterTemplateType\":\"Template1\",\"CreationDate\":\"25/10/2023 15:45:02\"}";
HtmlToPdf.ConvertHtml("test", pdfDocument);
pdfDocument.Save(pdfStream);

Hi,
This appears to be a bug of Adobe Reader. If you view the result PDF file in Adobe Reader, you will see double keywords. However if you view the PDF in another PDF viewer, it will not show double. For example, you can open the PDF with Google Chrome, then click the PDF Viewer's menu button (three vertical dots), then click "Document Properties", you will see the Keywords are displayed correctly. You can also open the PDF file with a text editor, and you will see the Keywords property at the begining of the file with only one copy.
Thanks!

Yes, I noticed that after sending the code to you. Thanks for looking into it.
