password on encrypted PDF file) in which case empty value are used.

\section parameters PARAMETERS

\verbatim
file-in   PDF input filename

file-out  DICOM output filename
\endverbatim

 $ diff gdcm.pdf gdcm.dcm.pdf
\endverbatim

\section pdf_mapping PDF Info Mapping

Here is how the PDF info is mapped to DICOM information (typical pdfinfo output):

\verbatim
Title:          GDCM Reference Manual
Subject:        Grassroots DICOM API reference
Keywords:       GDCM,DICOM,JPEG,Lossless JPEG,JPEG-LS,J2K,JPEG 2000,RLE
Author:         Mathieu Malaterre and co.

Converted to DICOM this leads to:

Explanation for the different Date/Time mappings:

\li Study Date/Time, Instance Creation Date/Time are both equal to the current time gdcmpdf tool was run,
\li Acquisition Date Time is set to the Modify Time of the actual PDF file,
\li Content Date/Time are set from the actual PDF header info: CreationDate.
