+ <title>Overview</title>
+ <p>
+ Apache™ FOP supports encryption of PDF output, thanks to Patrick
+ C. Lankswert. This feature is commonly used to prevent
+ unauthorized viewing, printing, editing, copying text from the
+ document and doing annotations. It is also possible to ask the
+ user for a password in order to view the contents. Note that
+ there already exist third party applications which can decrypt
+ an encrypted PDF without effort and allow the aforementioned
+ operations, therefore the degree of protection is limited.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ For further information about features and restrictions regarding PDF
+ encryption, look at the documentation coming with Adobe Acrobat or the
+ technical documentation on the Adobe web site.
+ </p>
+ </section>
+ <section>
+ <title>Usage (command line)</title>
+ <p>
+ Encryption is enabled by supplying any of the encryption related
+ options.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ An owner password is set with the <code>-o</code> option. This
+ password is actually used as encryption key. Many tools for
+ PDF processing ask for this password to disregard any
+ restriction imposed on the PDF document.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ If no owner password has been supplied but FOP was asked to apply some
+ restrictions, a random password is used. In this case it is obviously
+ impossiible to disregard restrictions in PDF processing tools.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ A user password, supplied with the <code>-u</code> option, will
+ cause the PDF display software to ask the reader for this password in
+ order to view the contents of the document. If no user password was
+ supplied, viewing the content is not restricted.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Further restrictions can be imposed by using the following command-line options:
+ <table>
+ <tr>
+ <th>Option</th>
+ <th>Description</th>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>-noprint</code></td>
+ <td>disable printing</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>-nocopy</code></td>
+ <td>disable copy/paste of content</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>-noedit</code></td>
+ <td>disable editing in Adobe Acrobat</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>-noannotations</code></td>
+ <td>disable editing of annotations</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>-nofillinforms</code></td>
+ <td>disable filling in forms</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>-noaccesscontent</code></td>
+ <td>disable text and graphics extraction for accessibility purposes</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>-noassembledoc</code></td>
+ <td>disable assembling documents</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>-noprinthq</code></td>
+ <td>disable high quality printing</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+ </p>
+ </section>
+ <section>
+ <title>Usage (embedded)</title>
+ <p>
+ When FOP is embedded in another Java application you need to set an
+ options map on the renderer. These are the supported options:
+ </p>
+ <table>
+ <tr>
+ <th>Option</th>
+ <th>Description</th>
+ <th>Values</th>
+ <th>Default</th>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>encryption-length</td>
+ <td>The encryption length in bit</td>
+ <td>Any multiple of 8 between 40 and 128</td>
+ <td>40</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>ownerPassword</td>
+ <td>The owner password</td>
+ <td>String</td>
+ <td/>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>userPassword</td>
+ <td>The user password</td>
+ <td>String</td>
+ <td/>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>allowPrint</td>
+ <td>Allows/disallows printing of the PDF</td>
+ <td>"TRUE" or "FALSE"</td>
+ <td>"TRUE"</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>allowCopyContent</td>
+ <td>Allows/disallows copy/paste of content</td>
+ <td>"TRUE" or "FALSE"</td>
+ <td>"TRUE"</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>allowEditContent</td>
+ <td>Allows/disallows editing in Adobe Acrobat</td>
+ <td>"TRUE" or "FALSE"</td>
+ <td>"TRUE"</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>allowEditAnnotations</td>
+ <td>Allows/disallows editing of annotations</td>
+ <td>"TRUE" or "FALSE"</td>
+ <td>"TRUE"</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>allowFillInForms</td>
+ <td>Allows/disallows filling in forms</td>
+ <td>"TRUE" or "FALSE"</td>
+ <td>"TRUE"</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>allowAccessContent</td>
+ <td>Allows/disallows text and graphics extraction for accessibility purposes</td>
+ <td>"TRUE" or "FALSE"</td>
+ <td>"TRUE"</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>allowAssembleDocument</td>
+ <td>Allows/disallows assembling document</td>
+ <td>"TRUE" or "FALSE"</td>
+ <td>"TRUE"</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>allowPrintHq</td>
+ <td>Allows/disallows high quality printing</td>
+ <td>"TRUE" or "FALSE"</td>
+ <td>"TRUE"</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+ <note>
+ Encryption is enabled as soon as one of these options is set.
+ </note>
+ <p>
+ An example to enable PDF encryption in Java code:
+ </p>
+ <source><![CDATA[
+import org.apache.fop.pdf.PDFEncryptionParams;
+
+[..]
+
+FOUserAgent userAgent = fopFactory.newFOUserAgent();
+useragent.getRendererOptions().put("encryption-params", new PDFEncryptionParams(
+ null, "password", false, false, true, true));
+Fop fop = fopFactory.newFop(MimeConstants.MIME_PDF, userAgent);
+[..]]]></source>
+ <p>
+ The parameters for the constructor of PDFEncryptionParams are:
+ </p>
+ <ol>
+ <li>userPassword: String, may be null</li>
+ <li>ownerPassword: String, may be null</li>
+ <li>allowPrint: true if printing is allowed</li>
+ <li>allowCopyContent: true if copying content is allowed</li>
+ <li>allowEditContent: true if editing content is allowed</li>
+ <li>allowEditAnnotations: true if editing annotations is allowed</li>
+ <li>allowFillInForms: true if filling in forms is allowed.</li>
+ <li>allowAccessContent: true if extracting text and graphics is allowed</li>
+ <li>allowAssembleDocument: true if assembling document is allowed</li>
+ <li>allowPrintHq: true if printing to high quality is allowed</li>
+ </ol>
+ <p>
+ Alternatively, you can set each value separately in the Map provided by
+ FOUserAgent.getRendererOptions() by using the following keys:
+ </p>
+ <ol>
+ <li>user-password: String</li>
+ <li>owner-password: String</li>
+ <li>noprint: Boolean or "true"/"false"</li>
+ <li>nocopy: Boolean or "true"/"false"</li>
+ <li>noedit: Boolean or "true"/"false"</li>
+ <li>noannotations: Boolean or "true"/"false"</li>
+ <li>nofillinforms: Boolean or "true"/"false"</li>
+ <li>noaccesscontent: Boolean or "true"/"false"</li>
+ <li>noassembledoc: Boolean or "true"/"false"</li>
+ <li>noprinthq: Boolean or "true"/"false"</li>
+ </ol>

+ <title>Environment</title>
+ <p>
+ In order to use PDF encryption, FOP has to be compiled with
+ cryptography support. Currently, only <a
+ href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/guide/security/jce/JCERefGuide.html">JCE</a>
+ is supported. JCE is part of JDK 1.4. For earlier JDKs, it can
+ be installed separately. The build process automatically
+ detects JCE presence and installs PDF encryption support if
+ possible, otherwise a stub is compiled in.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Cryptography support must also be present at run time. In particular, a
+ provider for the RC4 cipher is needed. Unfortunately, the sample JCE
+ provider in Sun's JDK 1.4 does <strong>not</strong> provide RC4. If you
+ get a message saying
+ </p>
+ <source>"Cannot find any provider supporting RC4"</source>
+ <p>
+ then you don't have the needed infrastructure.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ There are several commercial and a few Open Source packages which
+ provide RC4. A pure Java implementation is produced by <a
+ href="http://www.bouncycastle.org/">The Legion of the Bouncy
+ Castle</a>. <a
+ href="http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/jss/">Mozilla
+ JSS</a> is an interface to a native implementation.

+ <title>Installing a crypto provider</title>
+ <p>
+ The pure Java implementation from <a
+ href="http://www.bouncycastle.org/">Bouncy Castle</a> is easy to
+ install.
+ </p>
+ <ol>
+ <li>
+ Download the binary distribution for your JDK version.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Unpack the distribution. Add the jar file to your classpath. A
+ convenient way to use the jar on Linux is to simply drop it into the
+ FOP lib directory, it will be automatically picked up by
+ <code>fop.sh</code>.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Open the <code>java.security</code> file and add<br/>
+ <code>security.provider.6=org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider</code>,<br/>
+ preferably at the end of the block defining the other crypto
+ providers. For JDK 1.4 this is detailed on <a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/guide/security/jce/JCERefGuide.html#InstallProvider">Sun's web site</a>.
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+ <p>
+ If you have any experience with Mozilla JSS or any other
+ cryptography provider, please post it to the fop-user list.
