When my plugin is run under Acrobat 8, an API call to PDDocGetSecurityData() returns a security data structure that contains the users password in clear text. In version 9.0 however, the passwords are returned, but they are encrypted.

I've tried building the plugin using the Acro 9 SDK, but the strings are still encrypted.

Does anyone know what's changed?
