IsEncrypted Property

Summary

Gets a value that indicates whether this document is encrypted.

Syntax

C++/CLI

Java

Python

public bool IsEncrypted {get;}

public:  
   property bool IsEncrypted 
   { 
      bool get() 
   }

public boolean isEncrypted()

IsEncrypted # get  (LEADDocument)

Property Value

true if this document is encrypted; otherwise, false.

Remarks

In most cases, the LEADDocument is ready to use after it has been obtained. However, some documents such as PDF can be encrypted, and require a password before it can be parsed and used. Most of the properties and methods of LEADDocument will throw an error if the document has not been decrypted. IsEncrypted can be used to check whether the document is encrypted and if so, Decrypt must be called with a password obtained from the user to unlock the document. When that happens, the value of IsDecrypted becomes true and the document is ready to be used. Note that IsEncrypted will stay true to indicate the original state of the document.

Example

This example will show how to open an encrypted document.

using Leadtools.Codecs; 
using Leadtools.Document.Writer; 
 
using Leadtools.Document; 
using Leadtools.Caching; 
using Leadtools.Annotations.Engine; 
using Leadtools.Ocr; 
using Leadtools.Barcode; 
using Leadtools.Document.Converter; 
 
public void DocumentIsEncryptedExample() 
{ 
   // This is the password for this encrypted document 
   string password = "lead"; 
 
   var options = new LoadDocumentOptions(); 
 
   using (var document = DocumentFactory.LoadFromFile(Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "Protected.pdf"), options)) 
   { 
      if (document.IsEncrypted && !document.IsDecrypted) 
      { 
         Console.WriteLine("Encrypted Document, decrypting it..."); 
         // Decrypt it now 
         document.Decrypt("lead"); 
      } 
 
      // Should not be encrypted anymore 
      System.Diagnostics.Debug.Assert(!document.IsEncrypted); 
   } 
 
   // Or, set the password directly in the load options 
   options.Password = password; 
   using (var document = DocumentFactory.LoadFromFile(Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.ImagesDir, "Protected.pdf"), options)) 
   { 
      // Should not be encrypted 
      System.Diagnostics.Debug.Assert(!document.IsEncrypted); 
   } 
}
