Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Setting Password For PDF File--Linux Post 302745871 by Yoda on Tuesday 18th of December 2012 09:01:53 AM

Just renaming the file by changing the extension to .pdf will not convert a file to PDF. You have to use an app, for example:text2pdfto convert a text file to PDF.

For applying password on your PDF file, you can install and use pdftk. A simple google search will yield results on how to use this app to apply password.

I hope this helps.

NAME
CAM::PDF::GS - PDF graphic state LICENSE
See CAM::PDF. SYNOPSIS
use CAM::PDF; my $pdf = CAM::PDF->new($filename); my $contentTree = $pdf->getPageContentTree(4); my $gs = $contentTree->computeGS(); DESCRIPTION
This class is used to represent the graphic state at a point in the rendering flow of a PDF page. Much of the functionality is actually based in the parent class, CAM::PDF::GS::NoText. Subclasses that want to do something useful with text should override the renderText() method. CONVERSION FUNCTIONS
$self->getCoords($node) Computes device coordinates for the specified node. This implementation handles text-printing nodes, and hands all other types to the superclass. $self->textToUser($x, $y) Convert text coordinates ("Tm") to user coordinates. Returns the converted X and Y. $self->textToDevice($x, $y) Convert text coordinates ("Tm") to device coordinates. Returns the converted X and Y. $self->textLineToUser($x, $y) Convert text coordinates ("Tlm") to user coordinates. Returns the converted X and Y. $self->textLineToDevice($x, $y) Convert text coordinates ("Tlm") to device coordinates. Returns the converted X and Y. $self->renderText($string, $width) A general method for rendering strings, from "Tj" or "TJ". This is a no-op, but subclasses may override. $self->Tadvance($width) Move the text cursor. DATA FUNCTIONS
$self->BT() $self->Tf($fontname, $fontsize) $self->Tstar() $self->Tz($scale) $self->Td($x, $y) $self->TD($x, $y) $self->Tj($string) $self->TJ($arrayref) $self->quote($string) $self->doublequote($tw, $tc, $string) $self->Tm($m1, $m2, $m3, $m4, $m5, $m6) AUTHOR
