How do I Stamp a Password Protected PDF?



If this is possible, I would love to see the step by step instructions.



Also...if I have changed the PDF security to Read Only, but have no password required, will it still stamp the document?

This help page explains how to set up our PDF Stamping feature, including where to specify the password if your original file is password protected:

Note that our PDF Stamper creates a new PDF file for each buyer that cannot retain any security/protection settings from your original file. However, the Stamper applies its own reasonable security restrictions and locks each Stamped file with a randomized Master password to prevent tampering. When you set up PDF Stamping, you can optionally disable printing and/or copy-pasting from Stamped files and/or add a User (read-only) password. This help page explains more about what security restrictions we apply to Stamped copies of your PDF:

http://www.ejunkie.com/ecom/o7plug.php?ej_stamp_pdf=true&pdf_allow_copy=n&pdf_allow_print=y



Is that right?

Be sure to include the hyphen in www.e-junkie.com9 or the link won't work at all.



Otherwise it looks like it would work to allow printing but the text can't be copied and pasted out of the document. This URL also doesn't include the password parameter, which is not necessary when your original document has no password but be sure to include it at the end with the file's passwrd otherwise.
