RE: [iText-questions] Is there a way to set owner password null (No)

[abc xyz]

Dear Paulo.

i think it's not due to acrobat. since when we supply owner password as null or zero length it converted in random string. it mean there is some owner password is applied on document. this is why Acrobat shows master password: Yes.

bcoz it is no happened with user password bcoz it is not converted in random string.

is there any mechanism in iText to stop owner password to be converted in random string, i think in this way problem can be solved.

 

one more thing it is very teasing bcoz i supply both user and owner password as null but when i try to chnage securty setting in Acrobat it asks for owner password that is i dont know bcoz it is radom string. iText should tell us what radom string it genrated

thanx

hi all

i have a pdf file "abc.pdf"

now i want to make changing in this existing file("abc.pdf"). i m using PdfStamper class to making changes in existing file. i set the user and owner password using pdfStamper.setEncryption() method. i supply values of both passwaords as null. but when i opened the file in Acrobate and checked the securty information. there i saw user password: No,

but master password: Yes,

bcoz owner password in case null automaticaly converted in random string.

but i want to set master password: No also.

is there any mechanism? can any one help me through code example.

 

regards,

Sim
