EncryptPDFDocument not working

DaveSeay · Post by **DaveSeay** » Mon Jul 14 2003

I have the interface to the PDF Converter working correctly in our product but tried to add the encryption functionality today and it failed.

I have 2.1 Professional.

I call...
SetLicenseKeyA( 'our company name', 'our activation code')
and this function returns a 1 or TRUE.

I next call...
EncryptPDFDocument('full_path_and_filename, 'apassword', 'apassword', -64 + 4 + 16)
but this returns a 0.

Both passwords are the same at this point.
full_path_and_filename are correct.

An ideas?

Thanks,
Dave

Hello,

I will try this to see if there could be any problem using the same name for the user and owner password.

Meanwhile please try to use a different password for the user or the owner

Thanks.

Tried different values for each password but no change.

Thanks,
Dave

Hello Dave,

I tried the EncryptPDFDocument function. It is working, but for one reason or another it is setting the demo passwords. There must be something wrong in the sample application I am using.

You can encrypt the pdf files using Encrypt property of the Active X interface of CDIntf. I tried this and it is working.

I will check further more about the EncryptPDFDocument function.

Hope this helps.
