Thanks a lot Tilman .. I will try that 😊
Best regards, Hesham -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Included Message: It is possible for older encryption (not AES256): get the source code and have a look at StandardSecurityHandler.java. There is a segment where "isOwnerPassword()" is called, and a bit later, "computedPassword" is calculated by calling getUserPassword(). I tried this by debugging with out test files and yes I got the user password. So you could do it by 1) get length, revision and owner key from the PDEncryption object you get by calling document.getEncryption() 2) check that revision is smaller then 5, and 3) call getUserPassword().
