If the objective is to encrypt the whole document it can be done with the
class PdfEncryptor and all the links and fields are kept. Example usage:
import com.lowagie.text.*;
import com.lowagie.text.pdf.*;
import java.io.*;
public class encrypt_pdf {
public static void main (String args[]) {
System.out.println("PDF document encryptor");
if (args.length < 2) {
System.out.println("usage: input_file output_file");
return;
}
try {
System.out.println("Reading " + args[0]);
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(args[0]);
System.out.println("Writing " + args[1]);
PdfEncryptor.encrypt(reader, new FileOutputStream(args[1]),
null, null, 0, false);
System.out.println("Done.");
}
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
