Password to open a PDF

I wonder if you can place automatically by a script a password to open a PDF, which comes from a written text within the content of the PDF

You can not.

What is the Parameter values for passing a password to open a pdf

I need help in finding the Parameter values for passing a password to open a pdf(s)? The software is written in Delphi.

The Copy Protection only protects our Disk from being duplicated and also protects our Software from being copied and used locally.
As far as the password encryption, that is why I created the Post. I was hoping that the password can be coded in our Software to open the password protect PDF that we create. This option would of gave us the security for when the customer copies the pdf to there local drive they would be required to input the password which they would not have access to.

Installed Acrobat Pro 9 - requires password to open any PDF & botches InDesign exports to PDF

Installed CS4 on my new Mac, using the downloaded installation file. Everything works except Acrobat. I uninstalled Acrobat & reinstalled it. Same problems remain:
1a. Everytime I open a PDF, I get this message: "Adobe Acrobat Pro wants to make changes. Type your password to allow this." I have to enter the username & password for my computer to open every PDF. Then they open correctly.
1b. If I open Acrobat from the Applications folder, without opening a file, I get the same message & must enter username & password to open Acrobat.
2. From InDesign, I export PDFs using File > Export. The PDFs have little rectangles for about half the text in the entire document. I routinely export both hi-res (Print Quality) and lo-res (Smallest File Size) PDFs in InDesign & this happens with all of them.
Most of the work I do results in PDFs. None of them have password protection or other security. I don't see anything in Preferences that looks like it would relate to these issues. Help, please!

Go the the Applications -> Utilities folder. In there you will find the Disk Utility app. When you run that application, you can select your hard drive. Then click on the Fix Permssions button.

Opening a PDF file redemption code

I have recently purchased Lion, and I have been sent a PDF file via email, which contains the redemption code to download the software through the App Store. However, I am unable to open the PDF file, even though I have a password to open the PDF (which was received in separate email). It says the file could not be opened, followed by "it may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize." How to I open the PDF file?

It is best you take this up with the Apple Store directly. This is just a user to user forum. I've never had the redemption code come via PDF. It could be a spoof meant to phish for your personal information.
Best to take it up directly with them. Here's their link:
Mac App Store billing
They are usually not as inaccessible as that.

Enrolled for OS X Mountain Lion Up-to-Date programme; password incorrect in received PDF-file.

Dear Apple Support,
Recently I enrolled for the OS X Mountain Lion Up-to-Date programme. I was issued two emails afterwards: 1 containing a PDF-file with my redemption code for ML download through the AppStore, the other email containing a password to open the PDF-file. I've tried it several times, but the PDF-file keeps telling me the provided password is incorrect.
Could you please send me a new PDF-file with a password that works?
Regards, Mariana, The Netherlands

Thanks for the tip Bandit.
I wonder if there are other users with the same problem though.
Regards, Mariana

Need a password to open pdf

I downloaded Reader X on my Windows XP and now when I open PDF files Reader is asking for a password. I've tried all known passwords I've used on Adobe and nothing works. Talked to an Adobe tech and he doesn't know why it's asking for a password to open file. Adobe never asked for a password before to open pdf files. Help

What is the exact message you get?
I've never heard of it asking for a password either unless one is required for the actual PDF itself.

Is there a way we can use Acrobat Standard to assign a password for opening of signed PDF file once it has been downloaded from DocuSign?

Prior to implementing DocuSign, we used to scan manually signed document to a PDF file and then store the PDF file in a HR file share. We would then use Adobe Writer Standard to assign a read/write password to the PDF file. We now use DocuSign to have documents electronically signed and download the DocuSign PDF in our HR folders. However Adobe Acrobat Writer does not allow us to assign a password. It pops up a dialog box saying ""you cannot change security on this document because the document is signed or certified". We want to continue being able to store the PDF in our HR file share with passwords to restrict who can view off the share. Is there a way we can assign a password to the PDF file once it has been downloaded from DocuSign?

Thanks Bernd. We can't assign passwords before signature process starts as people will not be able to open the PDF without knowing the password. I think we will change our process and simply leave the electronically signed PDF in DocuSign and then "print" the PDF to our local file share for internal HR purposes. thanks again.

Hi higi97,
How are you connected to the internet? Are you behind a particularly secure corporate firewall? Are you on Mac or Windows? Do you have any anti-malware software running on your machine that may be preventing applications other than your browser from connecting to the internet?
You may try to follow the steps below:
1.Close the Creative Cloud application.
2.Navigate to the OOBE folder.
Windows: [System drive]:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
Mac OS: /Users/[user name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE folder
3.Delete the opm.db file.
4.Launch Creative Cloud.
Let us know if that helps,
Regards,
Rave

I can't open the PDF for the free install since both my emails did not come with a password. Did anyone else have this problem???

I purchased 2 new Macs, 1 a Mac Air 13" loaded and an iMac for my wife. I received 2 sets of emails, one with the code and the other with the PDF. When I tried to install last night, I would open the PDF and it asked for a password. I checked both sets of emails, which Aopple sent me 2 sets 3 days apart, and neither one had anything looking like a password. I called Apple Care and they said that it was on the sheet under the Thank hyou from Apple...NOT! She then said they would resend the emails again and hopefully have the password this time. Has anyone had this issue??????

Apparently it's related to the Firefox plug in.
This isn't exactly a solution but more of a way to avoid opening PDFs with Firefox's plug in.
1. Highlight "Tools" from the Menu Bar in the top left of the screen (or click "Options" if using the Firefox Compact Menu)
2. Select to "Options
3. Select "Applications"
4. Look for "Adobe Acrobat Document" under Content Type and to the right under Action select "Use Adobe Reader (default)" instead of the using Adobe Acrobat in Firefox
5. Open a test PDF. It should open in it's own window now.
Again, not a complete solution but something that'll at least let you scroll with PDFs open.

Can't open password protected xls or pdf

I can't open a password protected xls or pdf file attachment in my yahoo email inbox. I don't get an option to enter the password. Any workaround for this?

Same here.... very annoying. Hopefully Apple will pick up on this. The fact it just shows up as a blank page (without showing some kind of error msg) definitely makes this a defect... Hopefully a fix will come soon.

Opening a pdf file with a password

I can't open a pdf file with a password. It says insufficient data to acquire image. Can anyone help?

If you get this error, it means that the password is accepted and the file is opened BUT the file is damaged or made wrong.

I need to send an email where the recipient opens the PDF file with a password, can anybody help me and show me how to do that

Hello, I am trying to send an email where the recipient opens the PDF file with a password, can anybody show me how to do that

Hi surez,
To password protect a PDF file, you need to use Acrobat. If you don't have Acrobat, you can try it for free for 30 days. See www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html for more information.
In Acrobat, you choose File > Properties when the document is open, and then click the Security tab to set up a password.
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara
