Problem with the options signing and Security
When I only establish the options in the Security Tab there is no problem creating de pdf file or when I only establish the options in the Signing Tab it works fine but when I combine the 2 options it causes an error.
It causes an error even setting the PDFOwnerPasswordString value equals to the PDFSigningPFXFilePassword in the Registry.
Is there no possibility of signing and protect a document?
Thanks in advance
I have similar behavior ... for PDF file formats I can either enable the "Use Security", or I can enable Signing, but I cannot have both options selected. I get a different error, however:
Error-Nr: -2146232800 (PdfReader not opened with owner password)
Modul: modGhostscript
Procedure: SignPDF
Line: 50310
I get this error immediately after typing in my certificate password. A couple of other notes: I generated my certificate using Acrobat Reader 9 Tools --> Security Settings ... -> Digital IDs --> New ...
Also, this is using PDFCreator 0.9.9, using Ghostscript 8.14 Encryptor or pdfenc (same error for both engines), High Encryption Level (128-bit).
Thanks in advance for any help with this issue.
Getting the same error here although it still gives an error when only the signing tab is enabled. Again, I believe the cert was generated by Adobe.
TIA.
Edit:
I created an openSSL CA to create test certificates and it still fails. Error message below:
Error-Nr: -2146232800(PdfReader not opened with owner password)
Modul: modGhostscript

same problem
if I use only "security" option (without signing) everything is ok
=> document is password protected/encrypted
If I use only "signing" option (without security/encryption) everything is ok
=> document is digitally signed
If I use both options "security" and "signing" together:
=> error raised

Any ideas?

Sorry, but what files of the svn do i have to change/copy to the PDFCreator directory?
i copied the "readme.txt", "SignPDF.vbs" and "pdfforge.dll" to the PDFCreator\Plugins\pdfforge directory. But when i tried it the security settings now are usable for me - but the signing doesn't work anymore. I always get an error.

In the SignPDF.vbs there is a line:
pdfforgePDF.signPDFFile fname, "", tfname...
but in the readme.txt it's
void SignPDFFile(string sourceFilename, string ownerPasswordSourceFilename, string destinationFilename,...
"ownerPasswordSourceFilename" = "" ???
Could this maybe the error ?
Please give us a ZIP-file for download with the corrected files so we can use security and signing together. And please tell us how we can use both features together with automatic saving of pdf files.
Thank you.
