PRINTING AN ENCRYPTED PDF FILE

Overview

PDF encryption is used to protect a PDF file by requiring the entry of a password to print or edit the file.
To directly print an encrypted PDF file on an FTP server or on a USB memory device, etc. connected to the machine, reset the password and begin printing.
  • Printing is not possible if you do not know the password for the encrypted PDF file.
  • Encrypted PDF versions that can be directly printed are 1.7 (Adobe® Acrobat® 7.0) and earlier.
