Subject/Problem:

PDF files can be protected using a password. The steps below outlines how to work with password-protected PDF files.


Cause:

Solution:

  1. Open Data Prep Studio.
  2. Click the Settings Button - located to the far right of the toolbar.
  3. Go to the Security tab and click the drop-down button to select your option:
    • Always: Specifies that passwords from PDF files will always be saved in workspaces.
