There is no technical problem signing an encrypted PDF - it may be the way you 
are doing it.  Make sure you are signing in "append" mode.

Subject: [iText-questions] Issue with signing an encrytped PDF


Hi,
As per our requirement, we need to secure the PDF generated through our 
application.
We are using JasperReports to generate PDF and iText to sign and password 
protect it.
The issue arises when we are trying to sign a password protected PDF.
During signing, iText asks for the owner password, which means that the 
passwords were applied on PDF, but after signing, the passwords are getting 
removed from the PDF.
I request you to throw some light on why is this happening, whether is this an 
intrinsic  property of PDFs that a signature or passwords cannot coexist or is 
this  a limitation of iText.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Vishal Sinha
