Core Security & Maintenance Engines

Here is a detailed breakdown of the capabilities, algorithms, and configurations available within this tool suite:

1. AES-256 Password Protection Encryption

Encrypts documents with Standard Security Handler Revision 6 (AES-256) or Revision 4 (AES-128). Configure separate User and Owner master passwords.

2. Granular Permissions Locking Permissions

Control document rights: restrict high-resolution printing, disallow content copying, disable page modifications, and prevent form extraction.

3. Corrupt PDF Xref Repair Data Recovery

Scans damaged, truncated, or unreadable PDF files byte-by-byte to reconstruct missing cross-reference tables and recover stranded page trees.

4. ISO 19005 PDF/A Archival ISO Archival

Converts documents to PDF/A-1b and PDF/A-2b standards, embedding mandatory device color profiles and fonts while purging non-compliant active scripts.

💡 Pro-Tip on Security & Utility: When distributing confidential contracts, set an Owner Password with printing and copying disabled, and a separate User Password required to open the document. This prevents unauthorized text extraction even in third-party PDF viewers.
