# PDFDecrypt Component

The PDFDecrypt class decrypts PDF documents.

## Syntax

```text
securepdf.PDFDecrypt
```

## Remarks

The PDFDecrypt struct supports decryption of both password-encrypted and certificate-encrypted PDF documents. To determine the document's encryption type before decrypting it, subscribe to the [Password](#password-event-pdfdecrypt-component) and [RecipientInfo](#recipientinfo-event-pdfdecrypt-component) events and open the document. For example:

```csharp
pdfdecrypt.InputFile = "encrypted.pdf";

pdfdecrypt.OnPassword += (s, e) =>
{
  Console.WriteLine("The PDF document is encrypted with a password.");
};

pdfdecrypt.OnRecipientInfo += (s, e) =>
{
  Console.WriteLine("The PDF document is encrypted with a certificate.");
};

pdfdecrypt.Open();
pdfdecrypt.Close();
```

### Password-Based Decryption

 If you have determined that the PDF is encrypted with a password (or know that fact beforehand), you must provide the correct decryption password using the [Password](#password-property-pdfdecrypt-component) property (for user passwords) or the [OwnerPassword](#OwnerPassword) configuration setting (for owner passwords) to decrypt the document and gain access to its contents.

The following code shows how to decrypt a password-encrypted PDF document:

```csharp
pdfdecrypt.InputFile = "password_encrypted.pdf";
pdfdecrypt.OutputFile = "decrypted.pdf";
pdfdecrypt.Password = "password";
pdfdecrypt.Decrypt();
```

 Alternatively, set the decryption password within your [Password](#password-event-pdfdecrypt-component) event handler, and the struct will decrypt the document all the same. The *Available* parameter may come in handy in determining whether the struct already possesses the necessary decryption password.

### Certificate-Based Decryption

 If you have determined that the PDF is encrypted with a certificate (or know that fact beforehand), you must provide the decryption certificate containing the correct private key to decrypt the document and gain access to its contents.

The following code shows how to decrypt a certificate-encrypted PDF document:

```csharp
pdfdecrypt.InputFile = "cert_encrypted.pdf";
pdfdecrypt.OutputFile = "decrypted.pdf";
pdfdecrypt.DecryptionCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPFXFile, "C:/MyCerts/cert.pfx", "cert_pass", "*");
pdfdecrypt.Decrypt();
```

 Alternatively, set the decryption certificate within your [RecipientInfo](#recipientinfo-event-pdfdecrypt-component) event handler, and the struct will decrypt the document all the same. Like in the [Password](#password-event-pdfdecrypt-component) event, the *Available* parameter may come in handy when determining whether the struct already possesses the necessary decryption certificate. The information published by the other parameters in the event (i.e., *Issuer*, *SerialNumber*, and *SubjectKeyIdentifier*) may also be useful for determining which decryption certificate should be used.

## Remarks

This property is used to provide a path where the resulting PDF document is saved after the operation has completed.

## Data Type

**string**

# Overwrite Property ([PDFDecrypt](#pdfdecrypt-component) Component)

Whether the class should overwrite files.

## Syntax

*Go Syntax*

```text
func (obj *PDFDecrypt) Overwrite() (bool, error)func (obj *PDFDecrypt) SetOverwrite(value bool) error
```

## Default Value

false

## Remarks

This property indicates whether the struct overwrites [OutputFile](#outputfile-property-pdfdecrypt-component). If set to *false*, an error is thrown whenever [OutputFile](#outputfile-property-pdfdecrypt-component) exists before an operation.

## Data Type

**bool**

# Password Property ([PDFDecrypt](#pdfdecrypt-component) Component)

The password to decrypt the document with.

## Syntax

*Go Syntax*

```text
func (obj *PDFDecrypt) Password() (string, error)func (obj *PDFDecrypt) SetPassword(value string) error
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

This property is used to provide the user password for decryption. Though it may be different from [OwnerPassword](#OwnerPassword), most implementations use the same value for both.

## Data Type

**string**

# Close Method ([PDFDecrypt](#pdfdecrypt-component) Component)

Closes the opened document.

## Syntax

*Go Syntax*

```text
func (obj *PDFDecrypt) Close() error
```

## Remarks

This method is used to close the previously opened document. It should always be preceded by a call to [Open](#open-method-pdfdecrypt-component).

**Example:**

```csharp
component.InputFile = "input.pdf";
component.Open();
// Some operation
component.Close();
```

 If any changes are made to the document, they are saved automatically to [OutputFile](#outputfile-property-pdfdecrypt-component), [OutputData](#outputdata-property-pdfdecrypt-component), or the stream set in SetOutputStream when this method is called. To configure this saving behavior, set [SaveChanges](#SaveChanges).

# Config Method ([PDFDecrypt](#pdfdecrypt-component) Component)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

## Syntax

*Go Syntax*

```text
func (obj *PDFDecrypt) Config(ConfigurationString string) (string, error)
```

## Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every struct. It is used to set and retrieve [configuration settings](#config-settings-pdfdecrypt-component) for the struct.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the struct, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named *PROPERTY*, you must call *Config("PROPERTY=VALUE")*, where *VALUE* is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a [configuration setting](#config-settings-pdfdecrypt-component), you must call *Config("PROPERTY")*. The value will be returned as a string.

# Decrypt Method ([PDFDecrypt](#pdfdecrypt-component) Component)

Decrypts the document.

## Syntax

*Go Syntax*

```text
func (obj *PDFDecrypt) Decrypt() error
```

## Remarks

This method is used to **permanently remove encryption** from the document. The document is decrypted with either [Password](#password-property-pdfdecrypt-component) (for password-based encryption) or DecryptionCert (for certificate-based encryption).

**Example:**

```csharp
pdfdecrypt.InputFile = "encrypted.pdf";
pdfdecrypt.OutputFile = "decrypted.pdf";
// Set decryption material (Password or DecryptionCert) here
pdfdecrypt.Decrypt();
```

 NOTE: Since full decryption invalidates all signatures, this method automatically removes them from the document. Existing signatures should therefore be verified before calling this method.

NOTE: If the document is not already opened, this method opens it, performs the operation, then closes it.

# Encrypted Method ([PDFDecrypt](#pdfdecrypt-component) Component)

Checks whether the document is encrypted.

## Syntax

*Go Syntax*

```text
func (obj *PDFDecrypt) Encrypted() (bool, error)
```

## Remarks

This method is used to determine whether the document is encrypted. It returns *false* if the document is pseudo-encrypted with an empty password.

**Example:**

```csharp
pdfdecrypt.InputFile = "input.pdf";
if (pdfdecrypt.Encrypted())
{
  pdfdecrypt.OutputFile = "decrypted.pdf";
  // Set Password or DecryptionCert
  pdfdecrypt.Decrypt();
}
```

 NOTE: If the document is not already opened, this method opens it, performs the operation, then closes it.

# Open Method ([PDFDecrypt](#pdfdecrypt-component) Component)

Opens the document for processing.

## Syntax

*Go Syntax*

```text
func (obj *PDFDecrypt) Open() error
```

## Remarks

This method is used to open the document specified in [InputFile](#inputfile-property-pdfdecrypt-component), [InputData](#inputdata-property-pdfdecrypt-component), or SetInputStream before performing some operation on it, such as decryption. When finished, call [Close](#close-method-pdfdecrypt-component) to complete or discard the operation.

It is recommended to use this method (alongside [Close](#close-method-pdfdecrypt-component)) when performing multiple operations on the document at once.

### Automatic Decryption Functionality

 If this method is called on an encrypted document, the [Password](#password-event-pdfdecrypt-component) or [RecipientInfo](#recipientinfo-event-pdfdecrypt-component) event fires (depending on the encryption type) as a notification that the document must be decrypted before processing can continue.

Once the correct decryption material is supplied, the struct then attempts to decrypt the document automatically within this method. When this occurs, the decrypted content is kept in memory so that the document's encrypted status is preserved when it is saved later. Use [Decrypt](#decrypt-method-pdfdecrypt-component) to save a decrypted copy of the document instead.

# Reset Method ([PDFDecrypt](#pdfdecrypt-component) Component)

Resets the class.

## Syntax

*Go Syntax*

```text
func (obj *PDFDecrypt) Reset() error
```

## Remarks

This method is used to reset the struct's properties and configuration settings to their default values.

# Error Event ([PDFDecrypt](#pdfdecrypt-component) Component)

Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.

## Syntax

*Go Syntax*

```text
// PDFDecryptErrorEventArgs carries the PDFDecrypt Error event's parameters.
type PDFDecryptErrorEventArgs struct {...}

func (args *PDFDecryptErrorEventArgs) ErrorCode() int32
func (args *PDFDecryptErrorEventArgs) Description() string
// PDFDecryptErrorEvent defines the signature of the PDFDecrypt Error event's handler function.
type PDFDecryptErrorEvent func(sender *PDFDecrypt, args *PDFDecryptErrorEventArgs)

func (obj *PDFDecrypt) GetOnErrorHandler() PDFDecryptErrorEvent
func (obj *PDFDecrypt) SetOnErrorHandler(handlerFunc PDFDecryptErrorEvent)
```

## Remarks

The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the struct fails with an error.

The *ErrorCode* parameter contains an error code, and the *Description* parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the [Error Codes](#trappable-errors-pdfdecrypt-component) section.

# Log Event ([PDFDecrypt](#pdfdecrypt-component) Component)

Fired once for each log message.

## Syntax

*Go Syntax*

```text
// PDFDecryptLogEventArgs carries the PDFDecrypt Log event's parameters.
type PDFDecryptLogEventArgs struct {...}

func (args *PDFDecryptLogEventArgs) LogLevel() int32
func (args *PDFDecryptLogEventArgs) Message() string
func (args *PDFDecryptLogEventArgs) LogType() string
// PDFDecryptLogEvent defines the signature of the PDFDecrypt Log event's handler function.
type PDFDecryptLogEvent func(sender *PDFDecrypt, args *PDFDecryptLogEventArgs)

func (obj *PDFDecrypt) GetOnLogHandler() PDFDecryptLogEvent
func (obj *PDFDecrypt) SetOnLogHandler(handlerFunc PDFDecryptLogEvent)
```

## Remarks

This event is fired once for each log message generated by the struct. The verbosity is controlled by the [LogLevel](#LogLevel) configuration setting.

*LogLevel* indicates the detail level of the message. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (None) | No messages are logged. |
| 1 (Info - default) | Informational events such as the basics of the chain validation procedure are logged. |
| 2 (Verbose) | Detailed data such as HTTP requests are logged. |
| 3 (Debug) | Debug data including the full chain validation procedure are logged. |

*Message* is the log message.

*LogType* identifies the type of log entry. Possible values are:

- CertValidator
- Font
- HTTP
- PDFInvalidSignature
- PDFRevocationInfo
- Timestamp
- TSL

# Password Event ([PDFDecrypt](#pdfdecrypt-component) Component)

Fired when the class detects that the document is encrypted with a password.

## Syntax

*Go Syntax*

```text
// PDFDecryptPasswordEventArgs carries the PDFDecrypt Password event's parameters.
type PDFDecryptPasswordEventArgs struct {...}

func (args *PDFDecryptPasswordEventArgs) Available() bool
func (args *PDFDecryptPasswordEventArgs) Cancel() bool
func (args *PDFDecryptPasswordEventArgs) SetCancel(value bool)

// PDFDecryptPasswordEvent defines the signature of the PDFDecrypt Password event's handler function.
type PDFDecryptPasswordEvent func(sender *PDFDecrypt, args *PDFDecryptPasswordEventArgs)

func (obj *PDFDecrypt) GetOnPasswordHandler() PDFDecryptPasswordEvent
func (obj *PDFDecrypt) SetOnPasswordHandler(handlerFunc PDFDecryptPasswordEvent)
```

## Remarks

This event is fired during document processing to report that the document is encrypted with a password. It may be used to supply the correct decryption password to [Password](#password-property-pdfdecrypt-component).

*Available* indicates whether the decryption password is already available to the struct or still needs to be set. If this parameter is *false*, the correct password must be provided for the decryption attempt to succeed.

*Cancel* determines whether the struct will stop firing this event to request a password.

# RecipientInfo Event ([PDFDecrypt](#pdfdecrypt-component) Component)

Fired for each recipient certificate of the encrypted document.

## Syntax

*Go Syntax*

```text
// PDFDecryptRecipientInfoEventArgs carries the PDFDecrypt RecipientInfo event's parameters.
type PDFDecryptRecipientInfoEventArgs struct {...}

func (args *PDFDecryptRecipientInfoEventArgs) Issuer() string
func (args *PDFDecryptRecipientInfoEventArgs) SerialNumber() string
func (args *PDFDecryptRecipientInfoEventArgs) SubjectKeyIdentifier() string
func (args *PDFDecryptRecipientInfoEventArgs) Available() bool
func (args *PDFDecryptRecipientInfoEventArgs) Cancel() bool
func (args *PDFDecryptRecipientInfoEventArgs) SetCancel(value bool)

// PDFDecryptRecipientInfoEvent defines the signature of the PDFDecrypt RecipientInfo event's handler function.
type PDFDecryptRecipientInfoEvent func(sender *PDFDecrypt, args *PDFDecryptRecipientInfoEventArgs)

func (obj *PDFDecrypt) GetOnRecipientInfoHandler() PDFDecryptRecipientInfoEvent
func (obj *PDFDecrypt) SetOnRecipientInfoHandler(handlerFunc PDFDecryptRecipientInfoEvent)
```

## Remarks

This event is fired during document processing for each recipient certificate that the document has been encrypted for (if applicable). It may be used to identify the certificate(s) to load and supply to DecryptionCert.

*Issuer* specifies the subject of the issuer certificate.

*SerialNumber* specifies the serial number of the encryption certificate.

*SubjectKeyIdentifier* specifies the X.509 subjectKeyIdentifier extension value of the encryption certificate, encoded as a hex string.

*Available* indicates whether the decryption certificate is already available to the struct or still needs to be set. If this parameter is *false*, the correct certificate must be provided for the decryption attempt to succeed.

*Cancel* determines whether the struct will stop firing this event to request a certificate.

NOTE: The document may be encrypted with more than one certificate (or have "more than one recipient"), in which case each certificate causes its own invocation of this event.

# Config Settings ([PDFDecrypt](#pdfdecrypt-component) Component)

 The struct accepts one or more of the following *configuration settings*. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the struct, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the [Config](#config-method-pdfdecrypt-component) method.

### PDFDecrypt Config Settings

**CloseInputStreamAfterProcessing**: Whether to close the input stream after processing.This setting determines whether the input stream specified in SetInputStream will be closed after processing is complete. The default value is *true*.

**CloseOutputStreamAfterProcessing**: Whether to close the output stream after processing.This setting determines whether the output stream specified in SetOutputStream will be closed after processing is complete. The default value is *true*.

**EncryptionAlgorithm**: The encryption algorithm used to encrypt the document.This setting returns the encryption algorithm that was used to encrypt the document. This setting is read-only.

**LogLevel**: The level of detail that is logged.This setting controls the level of detail that is logged through the [Log](#log-event-pdfdecrypt-component) event. Possible values are:

| 1 (Info - default) | Informational events such as the basics of the chain validation procedure are logged. |
| 2 (Verbose) | Detailed data such as HTTP requests are logged. |
| 3 (Debug) | Debug data including the full chain validation procedure are logged. |

**OwnerPassword**: The owner password to decrypt the document with.This setting is used to provide the document owner password for decryption. Though it may be different from [Password](#password-property-pdfdecrypt-component), most implementations use the same value for both.

**Permissions**: The document permissions associated with the encryption.This setting returns the permissions protected by this encryption. The PDF specification expects applications to comply with these permissions when handling encrypted documents, but note that it is a policy-like requirement rather than an enforcement.

This setting is read-only. Its value is a bitmask of the following flags:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0x001 (pepAnnotations) | Annotating is allowed. |
| 0x002 (pepAssemble) | Assembling a new document on the basis of the processed one is allowed. |

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 | Discard all changes. |
| 1 | Save the document to [OutputFile](#outputfile-property-pdfdecrypt-component), [OutputData](#outputdata-property-pdfdecrypt-component), or the stream set in SetOutputStream, even if it has not been modified. |
| 2 (default) | Save the document to [OutputFile](#outputfile-property-pdfdecrypt-component), [OutputData](#outputdata-property-pdfdecrypt-component), or the stream set in SetOutputStream, but only if it has been modified. |

**TempPath**: The location where temporary files are stored.This setting specifies an absolute path to the location on disk where temporary files are stored. It can be useful to reduce memory usage.

### Base Config Settings

**BuildInfo**: Information about the product's build.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.

**CodePage**: The system code page used for Unicode to Multibyte translations.The default code page is Unicode UTF-8 (65001).

**LicenseInfo**: Information about the current license.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a struct is using. It will return the following information:

- Product: The product the license is for.
- Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
- License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
- License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
- Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.

**MaskSensitiveData**: Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to *true* to mask sensitive data. The default is *true*.

**UseInternalSecurityAPI**: Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation. When set to *false*, the struct will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to *true* tells the struct to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

 On Windows, this setting is set to *false* by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to *true* by default.

 To use the system security libraries for Linux, OpenSSL support must be enabled. For more information on how to enable OpenSSL, please refer to the [OpenSSL Notes](platforms.md) section.
