Saving Word to PDF with Security

Aspose.Words Product Family

I am trying to use Aspose.Words to save a word document to a PDF with some security. I am having trouble getting more than one permission to be transfered to the PDF. I did see a C# example where it looked like they were just concatenating the permissions together, but that is not working for me. I have tried setting them seperatly and concatinating them and the last Permission seems to be the only one that works. Can you let me know what I am doing wrong? Here is my code:

Dim doc as New Document("C:\AsposeText.docx")
Dim pdfsaveoptions As New Aspose.Words.Saving.PdfSaveOptions
Dim encryptDetails As New Aspose.Words.Saving.PdfEncryptionDetails("", "owner", Saving.PdfEncryptionAlgorithm.RC4_128)

'encryptDetails.Permissions = Saving.PdfPermissions.Printing
'encryptDetails.Permissions = Saving.PdfPermissions.ContentCopyForAccessibility
encryptDetails.Permissions = Saving.PdfPermissions.ContentCopyForAccessibility & Saving.PdfPermissions.Printing

pdfsaveoptions.EncryptionDetails = encryptDetails

doc.Save("C:\testword\AsposeTest.pdf", pdfsaveoptions)

Thanks

Hi
Thanks for your request. You can specify multiple options as shown below:

Document doc = new Document(@"Test001\in.doc");
PdfSaveOptions opt = new PdfSaveOptions();
opt.EncryptionDetails = new PdfEncryptionDetails("", "test", PdfEncryptionAlgorithm.RC4_128);
opt.EncryptionDetails.Permissions = PdfPermissions.DisallowAll | PdfPermissions.Printing;
doc.Save(@"Test001\out.pdf", opt);

best regards,

I had already seen this example which got me as far as I was.
I did figure my problem out however. I was mistakingly converting the | to and AND instead of an OR in visual basic. Everything is working correctly now.
Thanks for the help
