Hello Gary,
You may try to open it in an other free reader not based on the MacOS
library.
Either I would think that:
1) you stored the password in keychain
Or 2) you didn't protect the documents

Hello all,
I have a collection of PDFs I'm extracting text from
programmatically, and
some of them are encrypted. All of them can be opened in OS X's
Preview
without supplying a password, but when decrypting with PDFBox, a small
portion of result in an exception on decryption:
Exception in thread "main"
org.apache.pdfbox.exceptions.CryptographyException: Error: The
supplied
password does not match either the owner or user password in the
document.
at
org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.encryption.StandardSecurityHandler.decryptDocument(
StandardSecurityHandler.java:231)
at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument.openProtection
(PDDocument.java:1111)
...
This happens both with
doc.openProtection(new StandardDecryptionMaterial(""));
and
doc.decrypt("");
(not that I'm sure there's a difference). Is there some magic that
Preview
is doing to decrypt the document, or am I just hosed? Any help
would be
greatly appreciated. Thanks!
