[jira] [Created] (PDFBOX-2471) AES encryption failing to write Acroform field names and values

             Summary: AES encryption failing to write Acroform field names and values
                 Key: PDFBOX-2471
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2471
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: AcroForm, Writing
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Stephen Hendrix


When writing a PDF using AES 256 bit encryption, the field names / values from the Acroform are not being persisted correctly. If I encrypt using RC4 128 bit, they are persisted correctly. I am using snapshot pdfbox:2.0.0-20141023.180319-636.

I dug into this, and it looks to me the problem is with COSWriter.visitFromString, which invokes  SecurityHandler.decryptString (there is no SecurityHandler.encryptString).
