Changeset 24419 for main/trunk/greenstone2/perllib/plugins/PDFPlugin.pm

Message:

1. Dr Bainbridge fixed another bug with the EmbeddedMetadataPlugin and its interaction with OAIPlugin: extracted metadata is now merged into any earlier extracted metadata table, so that ex.dc.* meta extracted by the OAIPlugin higher up in the plugin pipeline is preserved after EmbeddedMetaPlug is through with the file. 2. Removed recent PDFPlugin commit where can_process_this_file_for_metadata was overridden. It isn't needed and may have adverse effects.
