GetEncryptMetadata

Security and signatures

Description

For newly created documents the default is 1. For loaded encrypted documents the value reflects the document's /EncryptMetadata entry; if that entry is absent, PDF viewers treat metadata encryption as enabled

ActiveX

Function PDFlib::GetEncryptMetadata() As Long

DLL

int DLGetEncryptMetadata(int InstanceID);

Return values

0	Metadata streams are not encrypted when the document is saved with Standard security
1	Metadata streams are encrypted when the document is saved with Standard security

Remarks

Use SetEncryptMetadata before Encrypt to change the write-side setting
