I did not get asked for a password, but then I had a ton of other pdf documents open, so that probably interferes with some functions. I haven't tried to open it with any other programs yet, but it occurs to me that maybe you can open it in another pdf program (e.g., maybe pdftk or xpdf?), then save it under a different file name. I don't know if Firefox can do that. Did you take care to disable the DRM settings? That doesn't seem like it would ordinarily have anything to do with passwords, but it makes no sense that one program would open it but another wants a password. Bill P.S. Breaking news: As I was clicking to send this email, I got a notification that kpdf wanted permission to access my tdewallet ... which does sound very suspicious. Why would kpdf need access to the passwords in my wallet? ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
