The page count is in the root /Pages object per PDF > specification. I still suspect Bart's publisher means the tags that are part of Tagged PDF, even if he doesn't know their actual name, and has clearly a wrong idea of what they really contain. The bad news is, TeX's support for Tagged PDF is very weak. There have been some experiments by Han The Thanh recently, but no general progress that I am aware of. In any case, generating fully tagged PDF would need a lot of collaboration between the engine and the macro package. > This "meta tags" BS sounds suspiciously like PostScript DSC. A bit, but the guy also asks for "header information", which sounds more like the kind of information you put between PDF's BDC / EMC operators.
