No, Acrobat is bloated, slow, and Adobe don't support Linux any more
IIRC.

Oh, you mean the title in PDF's metadata; I thought you meant the man
page title on the printed page!
Try altering the PostScript's
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Document_Structuring_Conventions comments
at the start to have the desired title before converting it to PS.
$ man -t ls | sed '1s/$/\n%%Title: ls(1)/' | ps2pdf - - | pdfinfo -
Title: ls(1)

Perhaps the backends, like grops, should accept some \X commands to set
metadata, passing on those they understand, e.g. title.
Cheers, Ralph.
