ICal and encrypt pdf

Hi there, is there anyone who knows how to encrypt a pdf from iCal ?
What I mean is when I try to print (pdf, encrypt pdf) with a calendar that have 2 or more pages the result is always the same: Error while printing.
I can save the document in pdf but I can't encrypt it.
Someone have a solution ?
Thanks!
Dan

For what it's worth, I get the same error. Perhaps a call to Apple 800-APL-CARE

Acrobat X and Encrypted PDFs

Hello -
We have Acrobat X (10.0.3) Pro (the version you can create PDFs with) and are having trouble with at least one machine.
There is an encrypted PDF that will cause Acrobat to give an error. (encrypted meaning, cannot edit/change the document)
There is no password to open and use it.
When opening the document we get:
Adobe Acrobat has stopped working
A problem caused the pgoram to stop working correctly. Please close the program.
Other PDF's work, if you open a PDF and go to Tools (upper right) then Protection and Encrypt. All the options are grayed out. Is there a way to "install" encryption options?
I have removed Acrobat X, rebooted, reinstalled, reboot. Still isn't working. On machines that can open this document, then do have Encryption options.
Thanks, Nick

Anyone have a thought on this, as to what's missing causing Acrobat X to not work with Encrypted PDF's? or be able to encrypt any of it's own?

Issue while Signing and Encrypting the PDF Document.

Hello,
I am developing one component in VC++(MFC) which signs and encrypts the pdf documents.
When i sign and encrypt pdf document using my component, I am getting following error while opening the document in Adobe Acrobat
Error during signature verification
Unexpected byte range values defining scope of signed data.
Details: The signature byte range is invalid
But if i open that document in binary mode and calculate the byte range its looking correct.
The Process for signing and encrypting the PDF document is as follows :
1)Prepare the PDF document for signing (Add Annotation objects,n0,n2
layers,create blank signature field,new xref section etc.)
2)Encrypt the whole document(Password based encryption).
3)Put the ByteRange values.
4)Write the signature in blank signature field.
If i just perform encryption(128 bit RC4 Algorithm) on the pdf document its working fine.Only after adding the signature objects i am getting above error.I think it means something is wrong in signature related objects,but i am not able to recognize the exact problem.
So what can be the issue?
Please Help
Thanks in Advance
Priyanka

I am sending the Sample Files
blank.pdf file is a original file
http://www.2shared.com/file/4677649/3f341d92/blank.html
step 1: I am adding Signing object(without data in Contents<> key) in
blank.pdf file.
Output File is Prepared-blank.pdf
http://www.2shared.com/file/4677648/48332d04/Prepared-blank.html
step 2: Sending Prepared-blank.pdf file for encryption.
Output File is SignednEncrypted-blank.pdf which is Encrypted and Signed.

Password for opening SignednEncrypted-blank.pdf is : "a".
Please help.

Read-only AND Encrypted

I am using Acrobat XI Pro: is there a way to make a file read-only AND encrypted?

Folks,
I may have found a way to create a pdf document with Acrobat XI Pro that is read-only AND encrypted. Please let me know if I have indeed succeeded or not, thank you!
The steps that I follow to create the read-only AND encrypted pdf document are as follows:
Create a plain pdf document, from MS Word for example
Sanitize Document
Create Form without fields
Close Form Editing
Encrypt with Password
Save
Save As Other… => Reader Extended PDF... => Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)…
I as a not-very-sophisticated-computer-user did not find a way to hack difficult to detect changes - such as the insertion or deletion of the word 'not' - into the resulting pdf document. But again, please let me know if you DO find a way to hack the resulting pdf document, thank you!
P.S. I think the resulting pdf document is essentially an encrypted form, albeit one without fields.

How to change the font and size in the fillable field of an encrypted PDF file?

hi!
I’d like to change the font and size in the fillable field of an encrypted PDF file I-485 from www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-485.pdf
I’m using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 in Windows XP. I firstly tried Adobe LiveCycle Designer, but the I-485 file requires password to be opened, which I don’t know.
Then I tried to print it to a PDF file, and use the Typewriter tool to fill in the form. But got error message while printing it to PDF file:
This PostScript file was created from an encrypted PDF file.
Redistilling encrypted PDF is not permitted.
The I-485 file can be exported to unencrypted postscript file, but got the same error message while trying to open the ps file.
I don’t know much about pdf file, can anyone please help?
Thanks a lot!

Ask the creator of the file for a unprotected version.

I created a PDF of my book in Preview and encrypted it. When opened in Adobe Reader, it is rotated to the vertical position rather than the original landscape position. How do I fix this in Preview? I don't want my buyers to have to hassle with rotating.

I created a PDF of my book in Preview and encrypted it. When opened in Adobe Reader, it is rotated to the vertical position rather than the original landscape position. How do I fix this in Preview? I don’t want to hassle my buyers with rotating. There was no option in Preview to account for this automatic and unwanted rotation.

Then you rotate it and SAVE or SAVE AS and it will remain that way.

Password protecting and encrypting received pdf file

Hello there,
how can I password protect (and encrypt) a pdf file that I received from someone else? For example, I may get a copy of my tax return from my accountant that I don't want anyone else to see on my computer or when I back up contents of my computer online.
I have only Adobe Reader 8 installed on my computer. So I am not writing these pdf files myself - I realize that then I would have full control over the security settings.
Microsoft Word and Excel files I can password protect. How can I do this for "received pdf files"?
Thank you for your help.

You need Acrobat, not Reader.
Be aware that even then, PDF security is easy to bypass.
I use a Mac for the most part but isn't there any features in Windows that will allow you to protect folders?

Looking for "PDF Public-Key Digital Signature and Encryption Specification"

Hi,
i am looking for the following ("old") document:
PDF Public-Key Digital Signature and Encryption Specification
Originally i could be found here:
http://partners.adobe.com/asn/developer/acrosdk/DOCS/ppk_pdfspec.pdf
But not anymore. Does somebody of you still have it? Adobe today just offers the latest documents but i specifically need that older version.
Or is there an archive i don't know of?
Thanks for your help,
ToM

You can read the PDF 1.5 specification OR even ISO 32000-1 itself for that information. Each feature is "tagged" with the specific version in which it was introduced.
Digital Signatures were first introduced in Acrobat 4 (PDF 1.3) and have seen various improvements which each version since.

Opening internet linked encrypted files and printing pdf documents

I can't open an encrypted file that requires an link to a remote server, the system says the computer does not have an internet connection, but it does. I also can't print a page from a non-encrypted pdf file which I can open and display. The printer doesn't respond, yet it works with everything else. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader 11.0.10 twice and also installed it again and replaced with Adobe READER 10.1.4. Neither of these changes make any difference. I've also disconnected the fire wall but to no avail. I now have the following Adobe programmes installed :- Adobe X 10.1.4, AIR, Flash Player 10 plugin, Flash Player 16 ActiveX. Can anybody help? Do I also need to install Adobe Acrobat and if so is there a free version?

Maybe that method does not use Adobe Reader, but your operating system's print function?

Conversion of postscript (converted from secure or encrypted pdf) to pdf

I have a postscript file which has been created from secure or encrypted (opening restriction) pdf.
Now when i use distiller to convert this postscript file to pdf then distiller cannot produce a pdf file.
The log file contains following text:
This PostScript file was created from an encrypted PDF file.
Redistilling encrypted PDF is not permitted.
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
1) Is there a way to convert this postscript file into pdf ?
I have a limitation that i cannot remove security from secure pdf.
2) Do distiller provide any settings which can be changed to convert
this kind of ps(from secure pdf) to pdf.
3) Can we provide password to distiller during process of conversion to
pdf.
4) If above methods do not work then is there a way we can
programatically using Distiller Api's for conversion to pdf.
Like methods 'FileToPdf' etc.
Thanks in advance.

I am facing a similar problem.
My workflow dictates that I convert the input PDF job initially to PS and finally back to PDF. If the input PDF file is secure (it's not encrypted - you will still be able to open the document), the redistillation of PS to PDF fails while using Normalizer 6.0 && 9.0 libraries. If I use Normalizer 505 library, the redistillation succeeds. I have checked with the same generated PS on both Distiller 6.0 && 9.0, and both the versions fail to reconvert as well. I am a little surprised that 6.0 and 9.0 will fail to do something that 505 library manages.
Any suggestions?

Preserving filename when encrypting PDFs in Preview

Dear All,
When I encrypt PDFs using Preview in the normal way (Print -> PDF -> Set Security) everything works fine and the filename is preserved. However if I do this in Automator the filename gets given an alphanumeric name. I don't understand why this is. When I open that file, it asks for the password that I had originally set and it reveals the document.
My workflow is like the following:
Get Selected Finder Items (i am only selecting doc not docx)
Convert Format of Word Documents (to pdfs)
Encrypt PDF (Picked out from the Documet list)
Move Finder Items (To desktop)
Quit Application (Word in this case)
All of the above seems to be just fine only that the filename gets converted to something else.
On the system.log file I get the following entries (hope this helps!)
Feb 1 12:07:10 Macintosh [0x0-0x300300].com.apple.Preview[17593]: Sun Feb 1 12:07:10 Macintosh.home Preview[17593] <Error>: CGCryptorProcessBytes: CCCryptorUpdate failed: error -4300.

I played with the encrypt pdf action and it seems buggy. it can't replace the original (non-encrypted) pdf. instead it creates a temp file with a random alpha-numeric name and passes it to the next action. the way around it as i see it should be to first save the name of your word file in a text variable and after the encrypt action (or maybe after the move action) rename the resulting file. "rename finder items" doesn't seem to want to accept variables so you'll have to do the renaming via apple or shell script.

Adobe 9.5.5 crashes on attempt to open encrypted pdf

Trouble opening LiveCycle DRM-encrypted PDFs in Adobe Acrobat v.10.0.2

LiveCycle DRM-encrypted PDFs open fine in Adobe Acrobat v. 9, v. 10.1.7, and v. 11. Why don't they open in v. 10.0.2? Is this a known problem? My company is UNABLE to upgrade or downgrade to another version of Adobe at this time, but we need to be able to open these PDFs with version 10.0.2. What is the solution? I get the following message when attempting to open these PDFs:

Usually bugs are fixed in updated software versions; what kind of other solution do you expect?
Actually, looking at ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/ I see that 10.0.2 has been removed completely, so this appears to have been an especially buggy version.

Metadata of encrypted PDF in iBooks

Hello everyone,
I got some encrypted PDF-files (document's content without meta-data is encrypted, opening files without keyword is possible, keyword required for modifying the file).
The meta-data of these files (author, title) are readable in applications as like Adobe Reader oder Adobe Digital Editions.
Using a Text Editor, I can see the meta-data in the XMP of the PDF-file.
Unfortunately, the author and title are shown in cryptic letters in iBooks.
Does that mean, iBooks doesn't support the XMP-Meta-data?
Is this a possible feature of upcoming versions of iBooks?
Anybody out there knowing about an other App supporting XMP in PDF?
Thanks for your input,
Thomas Mertens

Is this a possible feature of upcoming versions of iBooks?
You are just talking to other users like yourself here, and nobody knows what Apple plans for future improvements in this app. Tell them you want it via feedback:
