Hello all! I am trying to use pdfcrypt.sty to set permissions in my .PDF files, I tested it with "cryotdemo.tex", but an error occur with pdfTeX (log attached). I download "pdfTeX 3.14159-14h-pdfcrypt-2001...", but I needed to set parameters, generate .FMT files, and so on. I don't know very well MikTeX, but what their pdfTeX within don't work? Where I find the right version of pdfTeX to work with MikTeX? How I can fix this? Many Thanks K. R. Santoro _______________________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

According to the log you are still running pdfTeX 3.14159-1.10a-beta-2002= 1101=20 which doesn't have pdfcrypt capabilities.=20 > I download "pdfTeX 3.14159-14h-pdfcrypt-2001...", but > I needed to set parameters, generate .FMT files, and > so on.=20 OK, unpack that zip (?) file. Put pdftex.exe and pdftex.pool in the=20 location of the current files. (Put the files for version 1.10a-beta in a= =20 back-up directory.) Run 'initexmf --dump pdflatex'. Then try 'pdflatex x'. If the report version is 14h-pdfcrypt. You should be able to compile=20 cryotdemo.tex. (Untested.) Currently the suggested procedure is to use an external pdf crypt=20 program... Hans NB! If you use the updated wizard it might get confused when you manually= =20 change these files, but it's the only way if you don't go for an=20 external pdf crypt proggram. --- Use the MiKTeX search - www.miktex.org/search.html |

KRS> Many Thanks You only need to substitute two files: pdftex.exe and pdftex.pool. But don't erase the original files, only rename them. If it doesn't work and you really want to use pdfcrypt, give up using Miktex and install Tex Live 7. This Latex distribution uses the pdftex version which perfectly cooperates with pdfcrypt package.

But the next Tex Live will definitely use a pdftex without crypt support. The solution is not to change tex-distribution but to find an external crypt program. Yes, there exist free versions - I just don't remeber their names. Hans |

I have successfully used iText (Java based) to encrypt my pdflatex-created PDF files. It is published under 2 different licenses: MPL and LGPL. You can get it here: http://www.lowagie.com/iText In "iText.jar", there is a class called pdf_encrypt ... Best wishes, Markus |

I am sorry ... the class is actually named encrypt_pdf and this is how I called it: java -cp iText.jar com.lowagie.tools.encrypt_pdf Best wishes, Markus |
