Examples
The following example will set AES 256 bit security for the documentImports System
Imports ceTe.DynamicPDF
Imports ceTe.DynamicPDF.PageElements
Imports ceTe.DynamicPDF.Cryptography
Module MyModule
Sub Main()
' Create a PDF Document
Dim MyDocument As Document = New Document()
' Create a Page and add it to the document
Dim MyPage As Page = New Page
MyDocument.Pages.Add(MyPage)
' Create a AES 256 bit security object
Dim security As Aes256Security = New Aes256Security("owner", "user")
' Add the security object to the document
MyDocument.Security = security
' Create and display a label as a reference
Dim text As String = "This document has been encrypted with AES 256 bit encryption."
MyPage.Elements.Add(New Label(text, 50, 50, 400, 100, Font.Helvetica, 18))
' Save the PDF

public class Example
{
public static void CreatePDF(string outputPath)
{
// Create a PDF Document
Document document = new Document();
// Create a Page and add it to the document
Page page = new Page();
document.Pages.Add( page );
// Create a AES 256 bit security object
Aes256Security security = new Aes256Security( "owner", "user" );
// Add the security object to the document
document.Security = security;
// Create and display a label as a reference
string text = "This document has been encrypted with AES 256 bit encryption.";
page.Elements.Add( new Label( text, 50, 50, 400, 100, Font.Helvetica, 18 ) );
// Save the PDF
document.Draw( outputPath );
}
}
Remarks
AES 256 bit PDF security is compatible with PDF version 1.5 and higher. This class is FIPS compliant when used in applications that targets .NET Framework 3.5 and higher. Setting document’s PDF version to 1.4 or lower will throw an exception during the creation of PDF. Adobe Acrobat Reader version X or higher is needed to open documents encrypted with this class.
