Save as PDF with password

Aspose.Words Product Family

Hi,

Sorry if this has been asked before. I tried to do a search in the forum but that generated a server error.

I’m using Aspose.Words for .NET and would like to know if it’s possible to save as a password-protected PDF.

I’m currently using this code to save as a Word document:

doc.Save(Response, fileName.Text + ".doc", ContentDisposition.Attachment, null);

Thanks,

Mark

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your inquiry. Sure, please try using the following code snippet:

Document doc = new Document(MyDir + "Rendering.doc");
PdfSaveOptions saveOptions = new PdfSaveOptions();
// Create encryption details and set owner password.
PdfEncryptionDetails encryptionDetails = new PdfEncryptionDetails(string.Empty, "password", PdfEncryptionAlgorithm.RC4_128);
// Start by disallowing all permissions.
encryptionDetails.Permissions = PdfPermissions.DisallowAll;
saveOptions.EncryptionDetails = encryptionDetails;
// Render the document to PDF format with the specified permissions.
doc.Save(MyDir + "Rendering.SpecifyPermissions Out.pdf", saveOptions);

I hope, this will help.

Best Regards,
