secured PDFs

[Heiko Haida]

Hi all, 

some time ago I bought the PDF Password Remover (-->
http://www.verypdf.com/app/pdf-password-remover/index.html)for legal
purposes. 

The tool simply wipes away the password in a second and costs only 30 $.
So, forget about password security to be any kind of obstacle. 

We are using the certificate security for our manuals instead, which
will make sure that any unauthorized change could be detected. 

(Until now, I still do believe that a certificate can not be removed, or
only by those users who own the certificate and with the system where
the certificate was originally set. But maybe this is not true, does
anyone have objections?) 

Best regards - Tino H. Haida, Berlin
