Ah yes, I've just reproduced that problem by changing the invocation method from EJB to SOAP on the arguments I pass into the EncryptAndExtend example I posted:ALC-RES-001-022: The input PDF document is encrypted and needs to be unlocked for this operation.So it seems that when using SOAP, that the ...

The different permission types are set with the PasswordEncryptionPermission enumeration, and if they are too res...

I think you need to apply the encryption before you run the file through Reader Extensions, then pass the authentication information to the Reader Extensions API. I've done this recently on 7.2, but I imagine the principal remains the same for ES.And when you encrypt the file, don't forget that if t...

Has anyone found a solution to this issue? I'd really like to solve this... I'll keep trying things and if I figure anything out I'll post it here, although I'm giving up hope that it can be done without the 'beep'.
