To Whom It Concerns:

  I have a PDF that is uploaded via a website.  Often times, the clients 
will use a software called Digital Pen, to mark up these PDF files.  The 
files are then scanned by an OCR engine and become searchable documents.

The markup from Digital Pen is added as a pencil mark layer to the PDF 
document.  When I open up the document, and right click on the pencil 
marks, and select 'Properties', I see a property called 'Locked' and it is 
checked.  If I uncheck this 'Locked' check box, then the OCR engine is 
able to process the PDF document, otherwise these locked layers are 
removed from the document which is not acceptable.

Is there a way using Java, to unlock these Pencil Marks inside the PDF 
document?

Thanks in advance.
