OpenDocumentFromFile using IPXC_DocAuthCallback for non-Standard security handler

Post by zarkogajic »

Hi Support,

This topic is a kind of extension to https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/viewtopic.php?t=39056 but I'm creating a new topic as maybe the answer will be different.

When using OpenDocumentFromFile to open a non-Standard secured PDF ("Adobe.PubSec"), providing empty AuthDoc implementation for IPXC_DocAuthCallback parameter - the document get's opened (so no exception).

But, trying to get the page count (IPXC_Pages::Count) -> exception "PXCLib: Required value not found" is thrown. This is the case never mind if the certificate (digital id used to encrypt) is available on my machine or not.

Using OpenDocumentFromFile without the pAuthCallback parameter (so using null):

1) for document encrypted with available certificate: all works (can get to document's pages and the rest)
2) for document encrypted with unavailable certificate: "Wrong password" is thrown.

For 1 I would somehow need to know it will result in (2) on another machine (where certificate is not available).
For 2 I would expect a different exception - as it is not that the password is wrong but digital id does not exist.
