[jira] [Comment Edited] (PDFBOX-4436) Error opening encrypted PDF in Acrobat IOS/Android

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4436?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16747106#comment-16747106 ]

I tried creating an encrypted file with another software and that one opens with Adobe Reader on my Android phone. By looking at the file, I found a few differences: ours is version 1.4 (wrong), has a wrong length near "AESV3" (but that entry is ignored anyway according to the specification), and we have revision 6 and the other software has revision 5. However revision 5 is deprecated. Correcting our minor errors didn't help.
