Hi all,
One of the viewers of my site is using Acrobat reader 6 and is getting the message “Bad encrypt dictionary” when attempting to view the PDF. I’ve tried all three encryption levels with the same result. Versions 7 and 8 of reader seem to work fine.

Your PDF is probably AES encrypted (introduced in PDF 1.6),
whereas older versions only support RC4 and don't recognize
AES (hence: the 'bad encrypt').

Either you change the encryption type, or you use the Reader
versions that know understand AES.
