I noticed today that Evince 2.30.0 the pdf reader that come with Ubuntu 10.04 has trouble opening certain encrypted pdfs.

It opens the ones I created with pdftk but not the ones created by my bank.

It acts like I entered the wrong password

I have another machine still running Envice 2.26.1 on Ubuntu 9.04 and the same file will open fine on that machine.

I could view the file with ghostscript specifying the password on the command-line on my Ubuntu 10.04 machine.

So the issue seems limited to certain encrypted pdfs and Evince 2.30.0.

Any ideas?

Thanks

use okular
does the problem happen with okular or xpdf?

use gdb or a better tool

I have tried it with gv, the front end for ghostscript, and xpdf and both work fine. I am not using kde so I havn't tried okular.
