Security PB9 is ok but PB8 do not work

Post by Fernando Lusardo »

Please, I want to thanks by the help you gave me about using security methods!

Now I have one more stone to jump;

I use the method on the fly in PB9 like that:

i_ole_pdf.FileNameOptions = 1 + 2 + 256
i_ole_pdf.OwnerPassword = '12345'
i_ole_pdf.UserPassword = ''
i_ole_pdf.Permissions = -64 + 4

i_ole_pdf.SetDefaultConfig()

and this do the job!!

When I try to put the same code in PB8 do not work like PowerBuilder9, it create a document totally protected but without password, when you remove security from the document, do not ask any pass and do the job!!

Can you help me one more tyme?? thnks
:roll:

If you specify only an owner password without a user password it is normal for the pdf file to open without asking for a password but the file would be encrypted.

This should be the same whether you are generating the PDF file from PB9 or PB8. I don't see what the version of PB will affect the generated pdf file.
