Hi
Guys i had posted this problem before but didnt any response, this is very important for me
I have a secured PDF file but when i open it with the stock PDF reader in the N900 it does not open and says encrypted file and asks for a password which obviously i dont have. The same file opens in my laptop and Omnia windows mobile.
Please someone help me on this, is there a security setting which i can change
Thank you

You may try to decript the file on your laptop with pdftk:

pdftk Notes.pdf output decrypted.pdf
When prompted for a password, just press enter (assuming that the password is blank if you could open the file without it).

I assume you tried hitting Enter when the stock .pdf reader asked for your password?
Did you try Evince?
