Class UsageRightsPermissions

java.lang.Object

com.qoppa.pdf.permissions.UsageRightsPermissions

All Implemented Interfaces:

IPDFPermissions

public class UsageRightsPermissions
extends Object
implements IPDFPermissions

This class contains information about Usage Rights. Usage rights are used by PDF documents that have been "Adobe Reader Enabled", they protect the document from most changes while still allowing modifications to annotations and in some cases filling existing form fields. Enforcing Usage Rights permissions when manipulating a document will preserve the "Adobe Reader Enablement" status and avoid a warning message when opening the document in Adobe Reader. If not concerned with the Adobe Reader Enablement status, it is possible to simply clear the Usage Rights permissions.
