> The PDFParser.parse() method decrypts the document for the metadata already and then passes it over to PDF2XHTML.process(), which in turn calls the inherited getText(). This calls writeText(), which tries to decrypt the PDDocument again, but this will fail as it is already decrypted. The solution would be to override  writeText(), without the document.isEncrypted check.
