> Key: PDFBOX-1781
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1781
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Signing
> Affects Versions: 1.8.2
> Reporter: Travis
> Priority: Minor
>
> I am using pdfBox to convert sales orders from my companies main inventory
> system into pdf text format. The way it works, is that the user saves the
> file from the inventory system to a designated folder one of the companies
> main drives. The server then searches that folder and finds files with a
> specific file extension. The server takes those files parses out the
> information and converts over it over to pdf format.
> The user is then able to open those PDFs directly from their client software,
> so everyone is working from the same copy. The idea being to go completely
> paperless.
> The issue I need to resolve is changing the permissions during the conversion
> process, so the user can add comments and notes as needed without taking to
> many extra steps.
> Ultimately, the software needs to be idiot proof, and it is unacceptable that
> at this point the user can't add notes without going through extra steps.
> That is no fault of yours, but it definitely is mine if I don't figure it
> out.
> So, I need a way of changing permissions during the creation of the pdf. I
> have not seen any documentation or examples of how to do that.
> - As a side note, keeping server overhead down is a must, the parsing
> algorithms I am currently using have a big O of (n), which I am not happy
> about and I have three threads running in tandem just to try and make up for
> the file parsing inefficiencies.
