Don't get me wrong, it's great that @calixteman wanted to implement that — JS should definitely be supported! I don't want to come off as rude or attacking.

For starters, JS reference specified in the [commit comment](https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/commit/8de98079ca05f8f7001ee077771055a57dc0e948) is outdated. It's version 8.1 from 2007… We're more than decade past that now. We should be implementing [Acrobat DC SDK](https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/AcrobatDC_js_api_reference.pdf) ([here](https://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/acrobat_dc_sdk/2015/HTMLHelp/#t=Acro12_MasterBook%2FJS_API_AcroJS%2FJavaScript_API.htm) in a nice HTML version).

Other than that, the Doc object now is only implemented with `info` property with standard fields (`Title`, `Author`, `Subject`, `Keywords`, `Creator`, `Producer`, `CreationDate`, `ModDate` and `Trapped`, case insensitive). But [according to the spec](https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/AcrobatDC_js_api_reference.pdf#page=243) (even [in that old version](https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/js_api_reference.pdf#page=243)), this object can contain other, non-standard properties, that can be set both in Acrobat interface and in JS (which are case-sensitive then).

Acrobat 9.0 introduced another field to that property, `Authors`, containing semicolon-delimited list of authors.

There are probably other problems with that code due to the outdated spec @calixteman was apparently working on.
constructor(data) {
    assert(typeof data === "string", "Metadata: input is not a string");
    
    data = this._repair(data);
    
    const parser = new SimpleXMLParser();
    const xmlDocument = parser.parseFromString(data);
    this._metadataMap = new Map();
    if (xmlDocument) {
      this._parse(xmlDocument);
    }
  }
  _repair(data) {
    
    return data
      .replace(/^[^<]+/, "")
      .replace(/>\\376\\377([^<]+)/g, function (all, codes) {
        const bytes = codes
          .replace(/\\([0-3])([0-7])([0-7])/g, function (code, d1, d2, d3) {
            return String.fromCharCode(d1 * 64 + d2 * 8 + d3 * 1);
          })
          .replace(/&(amp|apos|gt|lt|quot);/g, function (str, name) {
            switch (name) {
              case "amp":
                return "&";
