Thanks for that - it looks like the PDF decryption can only be done if you
have the owner password, although it apparently has tools to apply brute
force to crack the password, mentioning dictionary attacks. Seems like if
you keep the password long and obscure, it isn't that easy. Does anyone have
any direct experience with these tools ?
