PDF password security rights enabling

Hi all,
We have Reader Extension ES & PDF Generator ES with us.
Throught PDF Generator ES we have already configured password security for PS to PDF.
Is this possible in pdf alone through PDF generator ES.
I have "watermarked" pdf with me I need to incorporate password security right to PDF alone not through PS.

Applying password security & comment enable to PDF

Hi all,
This is my second discussion reg. the livecycle PDF Generator ES.
First discussion was completed successfully with the help of "Jasmine".
We got a requirement from production team, stating that they will provide the "water marked" pdf.
They wanted back with password security and comment enable pdf.
Is this possible to do it in live cycle.
I check in livecycle they given provision only in PS to PDF not for the direct PDF.

Its rather difficult to explain over the forum, but basically the invokeDDX action takes a map of documents and the DDX file. The key of the map matches with the source values in the DDX. For example, if I have an entry in my DDX like: <PDF source=”doc1.source” /> then I need an entry in my Map with the key doc1.source.
You can either create the map outside of the invokeDDX operation (for example in a setValue) or you can use the operation's property sheet to enter values.
As for the DDX - if you are using ES2, then you can create one using the Document Builder by right clicking on your project and selecting New->Assembly Descriptor.
With earlier versions of the product you can create the DDX in the invokeDDX operation itself.
The following help file may clear things up:

PDF password security greyed out while saving a PDF MP Navigator

Hello,
I am unable to set a password for pdf's that I scan with MP Navigator. I have been doing it for years, but now it has greyed out. It is not selectable. I recently upgraded my mobo and did a clean reinstall. The problem occurred before the upgrade and now remains despite full reinstalls of everything. The preferences button provides no way to turn passwords on or off. The Set... button shows password security also greyed out.
Win 7 Home premium 64 bit, 8GB, 250GB SSD root drive, Core i7. MP navigator EX 5.1. Pixma MP 895.
Thanks,
Jim

A simple way is to flatten the form fields, which converts the field appearances to regular page contents. You can do this with JavaScript or PDF Optimizer (Advanced > PDF Optimizer > Discard Objects > Flatten form fields). A very nice script that adds a custom menu item can be found here: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

LiveCycle Designer 7 and Rights-Enabled PDFs

I'm trying to find out more about how to create and save a fillable PDF with the rights-enabled so the user can save and send the PDF instead of senting the ugly data file.
I'm confused because the info I find says to be able to do this you need LiveCycle, and I have Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7, so what am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

You need Acrobat 8 Professional.

Rights enabled PDF From and XML Data Collection

Hello,
Requirements is something in this line..Convert 3 page word doc- with name field,date field and few radio buttons to PDF.These would be send then send back via email, for further processing.Interested in the actual data rather than the PDF form.
I have used Adobe LiveCycle designer to create rights enabled PDF with name fields,drop down ,radio buttons and Submit by email button.Only reason i have it rights enabled is so that user can save the partially filled document locally and at later time fill it completely and send via desktop email client. The end users would have latest reader installed and outlook email client.
I assume, When the user selects the send button, an email message starts with attachment of XML extension and can send it.On my end I could user XML parser and read the data.I dont need the actual PDF.
Would collecting the data, in this manner , still fall under 500 use licensing limit on PDF's that have Reader Extensions enabled.
There is no comments or digital signatures involved or collected.Just the data,in form of XML and not the actual PDF.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the confirmations on my previous questions. On the signature thing....
Upon opening a XML file created by submit button, it does have signature parent tages with <signatureinfo/>,<key value/> ,<signrature propeties/> etc.
Would it be same as one filled and signed by end user ,if i import the XML file to blank template at my end.

PDF Not So Secure!?! Software available to modify or remove privilege password security!?!

Hi, I have searched on the web and have encountered an disturbing new.
This site explains the flaw with PDF security:
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/Adobe/Gallery/PDFsecurity.pdf
The following site claims that they can remove password security embeded in PDF files that prevents people from modifying or copying information within seconds:
http://www.elcomsoft.com/apdfpr.html
Is it still true for the latest version of Acrobat Professional?
If it is true, I think there is nothing protecting my intellectual property.
Is there some other ways I can make sure that they can only view, print, but not modify or copy the contents in my PDF files?
Adobe staffs, please take a look at this closely.

Did you see the warning that you get when setting security in Acrobat?
In Acrobat 8, "All Adobe products enforce the restrictions set by the
Permissions Password. However, not all third party products fully
support and respect these settings. Recipients using such third-party
products might be able to bypass some of the restrictions you set".
So, while disturbing, this isn't really news.
But in any case, Acrobat's password security does nothing really to
protect you from copying. Any file can be copied or shared. If you
want to protect your intellectual property, you have to enter the
controversial and often expensive world of DRM.

Saving A Dynamic Rights Enabled PDF as a Static PDF

I'm searching for a solution to saving a dynamic rights enabled PDF order form as a state image once the user has completed the order form.
I can do so via the Print Form button if I have an Adobe PDF print driver in my print list. But, if no print driver is available for Reader 9 users to download and add to their print list, the only option seems to be "File > Save As" and that will render a PDF file that is still dynamically active.
The client wants the file to lock information before they submit it. They want to avoid a situation where someone could tamper with order information after the fact. Any suggestions on how I go about making this happen quickly?
I have to launch a set of forms next week. Your assistance is very much appreciated!

There's another post dealing with this that may be helpful, I've posted a link for you below.

PDFs with password security will not open on Blackberry tablet

I'm a designer, pretty clued with everything Mac based. I put password security on PDFs sent out to clients to restrict editing, theft of images, maps, high resolution printing etc.
However, they won't open on Blackberry tablets, if they do, they show as blank, grey pages. The same PDFs without secuity will open. Client tells me he is using up to date Adobe Reader. To be clear, I do not create a password requirement for opening the PDFs, just to restrict editing etc.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I've had this same exact problem quite often ever since the update to version 7.6.2.9 on Windows Vista Home Premium. The only solution I have found is to go into Task Manager and find the two I-Tunes processes that are running and END those two processes. I don't know what other problems doing this could cause and it is VERY annoying! It might be a good idea to reboot after fixing it. I hope this gets fixed soon.

Password secured PDF forms

Can password secured PDF forms be filled out on mobile devices?
I've tried it on my iPhone and it doesn't appear that I can fill out the form. Wondering if it's just me or if other people are also not able to fill out secured PDF forms on mobile devices.

You can remove the security using Acrobat (not Reader) then use ExportPDF.

Password Security gets lost in portfolio/Low definition printing

Using Acrobat Pro Extended 9.0.0, I created a portfolio and added two PDF files to it (these files were not themselves password protected).
I then used File / Portfolio Properties / Security to apply password security, Encrypt except metadata, open password, permissions password allowing High Resolution printing and no changes finally allowing copying of text.
After completion, I then saved the file and closed acrobat.
Then clicked on secured file to open acrobat and was correctly asked for the opening password.
I then changed to list view, clicked on a file, Saved file from portfolio and saved it.
Clicked on PDF document (within portfolio) and looked at Portfolio properties and the security settings were still displayed.
Clicked on OPEN button (top right) and the document was opened. Document Properties still show security set.
Closed acrobat completely.
Clicked on saved document from portfolio and was surprised to find no security settings at all. No opening password, no password for changing document, completely open.
This is a major security hole from what I can see.
Another similar problem. If I secure a PDF document with password security as above, yet with low resolution printing. I can then reopen the secured document and print to an Adobe printer driver creating a new unsecured PDF from my secured document.
I cannot believe Adobe could leave two such wide security holes in Acrobat 9 so surely I am missing something here.
Can someone please tell me how to put together a portfolio without these massive security problems.
Regards
John

Assigning security to a portfolio will not assign security to the individual documents.

Loaded Yosemite onto mid 2011 MacBook Air. IMAP account goes offline - message - Mail cannot send your password securely to the server. Allow insecure authentication doesn't work. Repeated reloads. No joy. Help!

Mail cannot send your password securely to the server. You can remove this restriction in the Accounts preferences by setting “Allow insecure authentication”, which could put your password at risk.

I have the same problem.
Late 2012 imac 27", intel i7 core
When I upgraded to Yosemite, suddenly my email account (netvigator POP) gives an error:
Mail cannot send your password securely to the server. You can remove this restriction in the Accounts preferences by setting “Allow insecure authentication”, which could put your password at risk.
I have shut down & restarted mail, but no success. If I select Allow insecure authentication, it works, but that's not a long term fix.
I also have a hotmail POP account enabled, and that is working fine.
What's happening Apple??

XP pro file sharing and guest password - how to enable guest password?

Hi,
I want to share files between two Windows XP pro computers. I would also like that these shares can only be accessed with a password.
Here's a description of my setup:
I have two laptops: over 1 yo Fujitsu-Siemens (FS) running on Windows XP pro (finnish) and a brand new Thinkpad T61 (TP) running on Windows XP pro (english). Both of theses computers have guest account enabled and these accounts have also been password protected. FS's guest account is called "vieras" because of the language settings and TP's guest account is of course just "guest". Guest account passwords have been enabled using "net user <user name> *".
I've disabled simple file sharing on both computers, set shared folder permission to only contain these users: TP - "Guest (TP\Guest)" and FS - "Vieras (FS\Vieras)". Both computers have F-secure on them so I've made firewall rules which enable following services both ways to a specific IP: Ping / ICMP echo request and reply ; Windows file sharing and network printers ; Windows network browsing ; ICMP / Internet Control Message Protocol. I've also enabled these services on Windows firewall.
These computers can connect to each other either via Wi-Fi access point (b-mode) or directly using an ad-hoc Wi-Fi configuration (g-mode). Obviously the latter is used for more bandwidth hungry file transfers. Also, sometimes a cross-over Ethernet cable is used as well for even faster file transfers.
Everything on my setup works just fine except just one thing. I connect to a shared resource by running the computer's IP address. When I connect from TP to FS it prompts for username and password. FS accepts both english and finnish names for the guest account provided that the password is correct. But here's the problem... When connecting from FS to TP _no password or username prompt appears_. If I browse TP's shared folder sessions (under My Computer -> manage) I can see that FS is logged on as "vieras" i.e. FS's guest account.
Since I enabled FS's network shares over a year a go I can't remember everything I did to make it work. Every relevant configuration on TP and FS seem to be identical (e.g. "Security settings -> local policies -> security options -> Accounts: limit local account use of blank passwords to console logon only -> enabled") but still TP accepts connections without password prompt.
I've tried to get TP's password prompts enabled for a while now without any success. I did a lot of searching on the subject but I could only find instructions on how to disable guest account password prompts for network shares.
Has anyone had similar experiences or does anyone know what I should try out next? Thanks...
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Success!
I solved my problem by changing guest account passwords. I tried to keep things simple by using the same guest password on both computers. This however allowed FS to log on to TP without guest password for some unknown reason. My logic would tell me that having the same guest password would allow both computers to log in without password but this wasn't obviously the case. I guess Windows has its own logic that I can't figure out or this issue had something to do with different language setups. Anyhow my shares work now like I want them to work.

Updated my AppleID account info. Under password security shows an email address to be used to receive email with new password settings. I need to update that email address, how do I do that? Thanks!

Thanks for the help Niel. I couldn't change the rescue email address (an address that no longer exists and is therefore useless) until I could correctly answer the security questions. After numerous guesses, finally got them right. Was then presented with the option to change the rescue email address. Guess the only other option was to have Apple Support make the change or reset my account info. Have made note of the correct answers so this won't happen again. Thanks for the fast response!!
