SAP version 4.7  Email pdf file that is password protected.

Hi Gurus,
We have a requirement:
  Email pdf file that is password protected.
  Once the user receives the email,  clicks on the attached pdf file,
     it should ask the password.  Note that Password value should come from SAP.
What we have done is get the spool number and by using function module CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF, it converts the spool document to pdf.
On this function module, there are no parameters to make pdf as password protected and
  also include the password.  This is the problem.
Question:
   (a) Is there a way to make pdf password protected that will be emailed?
        What function modules, etc to be used?  (sample coding if available)
   (b) Somebody mentioned the that Adobe LiveCycle Policy Server should be installed together with SAP.
        If this is installed, how then would be the abap coding be in order to make the pdf password
            protected?
        How is the new policy server gonna be linked to SAP and how do the abap coding gonna be?
           (sample abap coding if available)
Thanks.

hi,
First save the file somewhere... LINK:[SITE|http://www.sapfans.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=326228]
In the site i send above you need to change it do receive parameters ou use always the same name...compile and then use the function 'WS_EXECUTE' - watch it in LINK: [SITE|http://www.sap-img.com/abap/ws-execute-to-call-external-program.htm]

  • Share Excel File that is password protected

    Hello all
    I have published a workbook in our shared area at work. It's massive and also has another workbook linked to it.
    Both are password protected so are only available for viewing. But tons of people need to see them particularly the source file which is no problem because they can't change anything so can choose 'read only'.
    However the problem is when I need to go in there to make a couple of alteration, I have to wait until they close it or of course as is typical, they will leave their desk and forget to close it!!
    I haven't used the sharing workbook option although I've tried it and shown one of our departments to use it basically.
    I was wondering if this would be possible on a file that is password protected and is locked on every sheet.
    That way I can just go in when I need to even if someone's in there.
    This is an extremely important file that
    can not go wrong.  (I do have a backup)
    What are your views on this option and what is the best way to go about it?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Would you like to tell me which Excel version are you using? According to your description, I recommend we try the two methods:
    Method 1:
    Excel has a feature "Protected the sheet", we can assign the different password to each sheet.
    For more detail information, please refer to the following link:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/excel-help/password-protect-worksheet-or-workbook-elements-HP010078580.aspx
    Method 2:
    Share the Excel workbook, and assign the edit range/permission to users. We can allow specific users to edit ranges in Excel. Here is the steps:
    Click 'Review', 'Allow Users to Edit Ranges','New'. In 'Title', enter the name. In 'Refers to cells', enter an equal sign (=) and enter the reference. In 'Range password', enter password. Click 'Permissions'. Click 'Add'. Enter the name. Click 'Protect Sheet',
    enter password. Click 'OK'.

    No. None of the iWork apps on any platform will open a password-protected Office file. You have to remove the password in Office first.

  • Saving PDF files in a password protected FTP site

    Hi Experts,
    I have an Adobe Form which I want to save in a Password protected FTP site.
    I have written the following code in the submit button
    TYPE = HTTP Submit
    URL = ftp://username:password@host/
    But once the submit is clicked, I can see ONLY the display of the files in this FTP Server.
    My requirement is, I want this PDF file saved in the FTP server.
    How do I achieve this??
    Thanks
    KR

    If you are using the Adobe Reader plug-ins in Safari, then the only functional way to save the PDF locally (without damage) is to use the save functionality that Adobe (not Safari Save As…, Export, or Print > PDF) provides. These examples were captured on OS X 10.9.5. Safari 7.1.2. Adobe Reader 11.0.10.
    Your first link will offer a roll over Adobe toolbar near the bottom-center of your displayed PDF document. Use the Save icon on the far left.
    The second link produces the Adobe sub-toolbar with the Save icon.

  • How to email a pdf file (attachment with password) using ABAP?

    Hi Colleagues,
    I
    n abap, how do you email a pdf file that contains password?
    (pdf with password, not the whole email).
    A custom program is created. Inside this program, it
    retrieves the spool number and converts it to a pdf file
    (using function module '....abapspool...'). No parameter to put password.
    I was able to do the above. The problem is how to put password on
    the pdf file.
    Once the user receives the email (say from hotmail or outlook) with pdf attachment, clicks on the pdf, it will as ask for an attachment.
    sap version 4.7.
    Questions:
    - how to code in ABAP to include the pdf with password in an email
    received from hotmail or outlook?
    - any function modules or classes that can do the pdf password?
    - do we need to install another technology or add-on application or
    ???? to do it? If yes, do we code in abap?
    - any other ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

  • I can not print a pdf file that was sent in an email.  I get the error message that adobe could not

    I can not print a pdf file that was sent in an email.  I get an adobe error message that it can not print with an ok to check and when i do I get another adobe error message that says I did not select a page to print. I have downloaded the latest adobe download.  I forwarded the email to my husband and he printed the document just fine.

    This first question which comes to mind is how do you display the pdf file in the browser?
    For this the browser uses a plug in (e.g. adobe reader) which already has the ability to print the pdf file. Depending on the version of your plug in, printing is started differently.

    Ps: which jdev version do you use?

  • Why can't I open/see PDF files that are embedded in an email or sent through the internet?

    I can read/see PDF files that are attached to an email, but I can't see/read them if they are embedded in an email or sent through the internet.

    I have a similar problem. I can open, read, and save PDF files, but I can't view my online bank statement on my Mac. The statement opens automatically if I use a PC, but on my Mac the page says I need Adobe Reader to view my statement. I already have the latest version of Adobe Reader. The problem seems to be that that the plugin only goes to the Libray. It doesn't get installed into Safari or into FireFox either.

(Here is the message: Adobe Reader could not open 'Digital_Holiday_Cookbook.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).

  • How do i edit a PDF file that was sent to me in an email?

    How do i edit a PDF file that was sent to me in an email?

    Depends on the extent of the edits. You will need Acrobat in any case. If the edits or minor, you can use the text edit tool. For major edits, you need to request the original file be sent or see if you can Save As a DOC or related file type. PDFs are not really structured for editing and you are asking for a lot of grief if you want to do much. Exporting is the best way, or even better simply asking the author for the original (non-PDF type).

  • I cannot ope PDF files that are within a web link.  Neither Safari nor Firefox will work.  If I receive a PDF file as an email attachment, I can open it with either Adobe or Preview.  I'm running 10.6.8 on an iMac.

    I'm going to re-state this.  Several weeks ago, I had installed Security Update 2012-004 on my iMac.  I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.  Immediately afterwards, my Mail 4.6 was GONE.  Mail 4.2 was there, but the system would not open it.  The Apple Support Communites quickly solved my problem.  The problem lay within the Update.  Now, I cannot open PDF files that are contained within a website, i.e. a lunch menu that is on a restaurant website.  This happens on both Safari and Firefox.  If someone sends me an email with an attached PDF file, I can open the file with either Adobe or Preview.  This is happening only on my iMac.  My MacBook Pro, also running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 has not experienced either the first or second problem.  Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Try double clicking your home button then force close the stuck PDF by swiping upward. Once you've done that just click the home button again to exit.

    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,
