Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: evince
I've got a PDF document with Password Security enabled but set to ask password
only for changing the permissions of the file. The Document Open Password
setting is "no" as you can see in the image Acrobat_security.png in the
attached zip file.
Adobe Reader X 10.0.1 on Windows XP handles the permissions correctly and
doesn't ask for password when I open the file.
Evince on ubuntu 10.10 asks for password right away when I click to open the
document. See the image Evince_security.png
Evince should ask for password only when I try to change it's permissions and
let me see the file.
Unfortunately I cannot attach the PDF file because it's confidential
data of a customer. I hope the screenshots are enough to reproduce the
problem.
