Hello Michael,

yes, you're right. It is a little bit difficult to understand that rights are 
being different interpreted by different clients (accordingly to their 
functions).

Tests without setting any rights succeeded.

Thanks for your help!

Kind regards,
Ingo

It does work. But Adobe Reader does not allow you to apply all the 
manipulations the PDF allows.

If you want a tool for all PDF manipulations not explicitly forbidden by the 
PDF, you indeed need Adobe Acrobat (or a similar package by other 
manufacturers).

Adobe Reader is the low-cost (heck, you get it for free) limited variant of 
Acrobat. Thus, there obviously are feature restrictions compared with the full 
product. Some of these can be lifted by adding usage rights to the PDF in 
question but you will need Adobe software or services to do this (they want 
money, either from the person who wants to edit the PDF or -- if that first 
person uses the free Reader -- from the person supplying the PDF).

Regards,   Michael
