Usage Rights are applied to a PDF by encrypting the PDF using a private key that is private to Adobe. There is no other company (and a fortiori NO THIRD PARTY tool) that is allowed to use this private key. Most of the questions concerning Usage Rights will be answered with the same answer: buy Adobe software. > After I add new content like some hidden/visible fields and open the pdf > in acrobat i get a really scary message, > "This document enabled extended features in Adobe Reader.

You won't find any non Adobe software that is able to "manipulate" usage rights. > 2. How do i get the data bindings OR remove them? You could remove them using the method removeUsageRights(). > Some pointers would be really helpfull.
