Email PDF password script sets both the user and owner password to the same value, so that
when the recipient provides the password, he can manipulate the file without limitations.
In a Control Script:
l password is used to set the user password and owner password for a PDF attachment to
the same value.
l ownerPassword is used to set the owner password for a PDF attachment. Setting only the
owner password creates a secured PDF that can be freely viewed, but cannot be
manipulated unless the owner password is provided. Note that the recipient needs Adobe
Acrobat to do this, because the Acrobat Reader does not allow users to enter the owner
password.
Removing a password
Passwords set in the Control Script override the password set through the Email PDF
password script (see "Email PDF password" on page98). This allows you to change or remove
the password from a specific part. Removal is done by setting the password field to null or an
empty string ("").
Example
This scripts splits the Print output into two PDF attachments and sets a password for the
second attachment.
var printSections;
if (channel == Channel.EMAIL) { // only when generating Email
output
if (merge.context.type == ContextType.PRINT) {
printSections = merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections;
printSections['Section 1'].part = 'PDFAttach1';
printSections['Section 2'].part = 'PDFAttach2'
printSections['Section 2'].password = 'secret';
}
}
