I had luck decrypting a fileopen PDF but I had access to the PDF before I did it.
Can you open the PDF on your PC?

I currently have the same problem. The error says that plugin version needs to be updated, but I installed that recently.
Of course, I can successfully open the PDF, but this script seems to fail decrypting it.

Next step would be using "PrintScreen" for each page, but this would be a cumbersome task 😄

I tried to figure out this issue myself, with success! 😃
You only need to modify which version of FileOpen the script is reporting to FileOpen's servers.

Edit line 2285: Choose 995 as the build number, and that's all!

I just spent a couple of hours searching for a solution. Thanks a million skutter-x86!!!! Your modification worked perfectly

Could you please let me know which code do you use and is it possible to share with me? Thanks

Hi @hasaom,

I'm not sure if the fix I found will be still working.
The only change I did was at line 2285:
Replace this:
self.fileopen['Build']='879'
With that:
self.fileopen['Build']='995'

If FileOpen version or build number has changed since Jun-2020, you probably need to have these numbers updated also in the Python script. When installing FileOpen you can guess the build number and use it at line 2285.

If your problem persists, maybe this solution is no longer applicable (I have not used ineptpdf since Jun-2020), or you guessed incorrectly the build number. There is high chance that FileOpen's servers have been "fixed" so that ineptpdf can no longer be used.

Just try, keep trying, and let's see what happens! 👍

EDIT: And, there is another hurdle in your path: you have to use Windows if you want to use this "fix", I think.

@skutter-x86, Thanks for replying to my comment. Could you please let me know where I should download the files for python code and other related materials? Thanks,

For anyone finding this, as of June 2021 build number is 996 is working for me. 995 didn't.

[BlackDog6469]

Changing the build number of the script to 995 worked for me as well - thanks so much for this!

Neither 995 nor 996 seems to do the trick for me.
I can open the PDF in Adobe but the script tells me:

1st preresult
RetVal=0&Error=You are not permitted to open this document.  It may be assigned to another user

compared to OP, the response is way much shorter. Any thoughts?

[hasaom]

Read the build number from your program list and then use that build number. My build number is 994 and it did work for me.

hello,
Could you please let me know where I should download the files for python code and other related materials? Thanks,

[hasaom]

Click here ineptpdf.py <https://github.com/alaingilbert/ineptpdf/blob/master/ineptpdf.py> and then follow the information there.
