Can you open the PDF with Adobe Digital Editions? In the associated ePub thread it was reported that this error could mean that the ebook isn't registered to your AdobeID. Like most circumvention tools, ineptpdf only works on ebooks you own.

Yes. I can open the ebook (.acsm file and PDF file). If I try to open with Adobe Acrobay 9 Pro the encrypted PDF file generated by AED in My Digital Editions folder, Acrobat can't open it but redirect to AED.
The book is mine. I bought it in a Spanish Academy of Oppositions in .acsm format. If the Adobe ID and the registered user name in the web page of the Academy is the same, the book is registered to my Adobe ID, isn't it?

The .acsm file is just a stub that allows you to download the PDF encrypted for your AdobeID (the Academy does not have your AdobeID). If you downloaded the PDF within ADE and can open the PDF within ADE, then it is registered to your AdobeID.

I see that others have had this problem with some PDFs, so it is probably a bug in ineptpdf. The ineptepub script seems to be more robust, probably because the ePub file format is simpler.

I have used the ineptpdf_v4 script and I can't decrypt my DRM PDF file.
I have the book registered with my Adobe ID. It's a PDF v1.4 and I can open it within ADE.

The ineptkey_v3 script generates the key succesfully, but the ineptpdf_v3 and ineptpdf_v4 don't work. Only works the ineptpdf_v2 generating a PDF with blank pages.

I don't understand. I need to print the book to study.

I am new to this DRM business. I have the scripts (ineptkey.pyw and indeptpdf.pyw) but no Adeptkey.der is produced. Do the scripts have to be in a particular folder or should Digital Editions be open at the same time? Just looking for a little help.[/U][/U][/I]

[I]EDIT: Never mind, I had a bad ineptkey.

Victor, Wallcraft answered your question above. It appears that ineptpdf has a bug that at least some of us have run into. It looks like for some documents, it successfully decrypts, but does not generate correct PDF. While I would love a workaround for this problem, I have yet to see one.

(Edit: I wrote Postscript when I meant PDF.)

Well it's not a bug it just doesn't support all new pdf 1.5+ features.

Grauheim · 12-02-2009, 08:07 AM

Well... I call it a bug when it silently generates a PDF that Acrobat cannot read. But I'm certainly not complaining about this software, particularly given what I paid for it.

But none of this changes the fact that there's no workaround. If I'm wrong and you know about one, I'm all ears.

Well, I'm planing to take a second deeper look (it's just not my highest priority right now).

Last time the problem was that I haven't that deep inside in the exact standard conform pdf structure and no PDF-expert seem to have the interest in investing some time with me to figure out how to create a correct standard conform pdf 1.5+.

Oh so you're actually maintaining this software? I'm very impressed!

victor_2203 · 12-02-2009, 04:12 PM

Yes joblack!! It's a very good new!! I hope you can solve the problem with PDF 1.5. It would be very very good!!
Thank you very much for all your great work!!

Under legal circumstances I'm not (so Adobe: I don't maintain it - and don't send me fancy lawyer's letters either).

And I haven't done any adjustments and haven't touched the code ...

tralalala ...

Grauheim · 12-03-2009, 07:12 AM

What code? I don't see any code anywhere! Was somebody talking about code?

You're right - I just wanted to make it clear that

I know nothing about anything or nothing ...
