Grab the title of a tag from asset metadata in Native PDF

Is there any way to grab the tag title in a native pdf field? I have a custom metadata field on my asset called category, and it is a tag field. When rendering the pdf I get the full path to the tag, but I want to display the title instead.

i.e. The below displays "PROJECT:DOCUMENT-TYPE/DOCUMENT-TYPE" and I want it to display "Document Type Title"

Yes, you will need to keep the value you want in output i.e. text as value in crx/de.

Please give it a try and let me know how it goes.

Hi,

 

In your case whatever value you have set in Category will be coming in Native PDF output. 

Can you share a screenshot of this Category asset metadata property? 

Also please refer to https://experienceleague-review.corp.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-guides/using/install-guide/on-prem-ig/output-gen-config/config-native-pdf-publish/design-page-layout.html . Go to "Add fields and metadata" section. You will find various ways you can use metadata from ditamaps and topics.

 

Thanks and Regards,

    Yes I have that property set up to be a tag.

     

    Metadata schema:

    On the Asset:

    CRXDE:

     

    It sounds like I will have to just use a text property in the schema and manually add the document type instead of using tags.
