Encrypt pd file
Hello,
I have a request from my client to generate employee payslip on pdf file from SAP, encrypt it and send it by mail to the employee.
For the encryption part I used the JAR file (PDFBox 1.8.12) that I downloaded from your website. I created SAP ABAP programme to call the JAR file. The testing were fine, the files were encrypted successfully and we were able to enter PWD when opening the files.
We have a problem with the EE using iPhone and iPad, when they tried to open the file they were not asked to enter a password, the file was opened automatically.
Please do you have an idea how to fix this issue.
Thanks a lot.

FWIW: Acrobat will set the owner password to the user password if no owner password is specified.

Khaled, can you confirm that this was the cause?
I remember something similar not long ago, either here or on stackoverflow. Some user had an empty owner password, and wondered why he/she had all the rights after opening the file.
I'd like to get feedback, because maybe we should change the javadoc or the code itself.

You probably encrypted the file with a user password, but left the owner password as NULL. You should set the owner password to be the same as the user password when only one password is needed.
PDF Viewers other than Adobe's will open a file with a NULL password in either location.

What was the exact command line that you used?
Can you repeat whatever you did with a non confidential file, and upload
that one somewhere?
