pdftk proctected PDFs

Post by abonsey »

Hi All,
I am fine using password protection for PDFs within a flow using pdftk ie both owner and user working fine.
What I am struggling with is setting an owner password, but allowing ONLY printing.
See below of what I have, and what I've tried.
Looked at various placements of the "allow" but can't seem to get it to work. Anybody had success with this?

"%1" output "%2" owner_pw XXXX
"%1" output "%2" owner_pw XXXX allow Printing

TIA

I have a flow that works with the second variant. Check the other properties of "Execute command". Did you use "File at path" for the "Output" property? The default is "None" and then you get nothing.
