I have a postscript file which has been created from secure or encrypted (opening restriction) pdf. Now when i use distiller to convert this postscript file to pdf then distiller cannot produce a pdf file. The log file contains following text: This PostScript file was created from an encrypted PDF file. Redistilling encrypted PDF is not permitted. %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%% %%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %% 1) Is there a way to convert this postscript file into pdf ? I have a limitation that i cannot remove security from secure pdf. 2) Do distiller provide any settings which can be changed to convert this kind of ps(from secure pdf) to pdf. 3) Can we provide password to distiller during process of conversion to pdf. 4) If above methods do not work then is there a way we can programatically using Distiller Api's for conversion to pdf. Like methods 'FileToPdf' etc. Thanks in advance.
