Suggestion: possibility of opening PDFs using owner password

support

Hi,

this has been fixed in the meantime. It is now possible to use the owner password and this will also remove the protection.

Hi,
When I started using wpViewPdf I was surprised to found out that I could only open a password protected PDF if I supplied the pdf's user password (opening password).
Most of my PDFs are password protected and I have always supplied the owner password in order to view them. Instead of reviewing and changing all my pdf creating and viewing code I've added a procedure in the OnNeedPassword event of the viewer where I unprotect the pdf with the supplied owner password and I load the viewer with the unprotected pdf.
This works but, obviously, there is a delay.

What I suggest is the posibility of opening a password protected pdf when only the owner password is supplied (I believe this is the common behaviour in the rest of pdf viewers I know).

Thanks in advance.

Edorta.
