-------------------------------------------------------------------
Encryption and decryption is there but IIRC length 128 doesn't work with
external software.
[Code|https://kb.itextpdf.com/home/it7kb/examples/certificate-encryption] that
I used to create an encrypted PDF to try decryption (at that time, I used itext
7.1.3 + bc 1.60). I don't have enough time right now, sadly. Maybe in a few
days. Yes this is something you could try. I tried at that time and wasn't
successful. The file I created at that time does have /V 4. But it's really the
decryption that matters most. There is no real need to encrypt with 128, one
should choose 256 (which works).

> Follow-up of PDFBOX-4413. AES256 works for public key crypto, but AES128
> doesn't when the file is generated by an external software. (local tests
> work) We should at least get the decryption to work.
