Thanks for your reply Micheal,
But I don't want to have any owner password for the encrypted pdf. Is that
possible? We just need to have user password. Also, I think it doesn't work
if we have same password for user and owner. That's a different case..I am
trying to encrypt the pdf with out any owner password for now. If that's
not feasible I would like to have same password for user and owner.
Thanks,
Satya
