I need to open a password protected pdf file in memory through my .net application and do something with the contents parsed.
There are now form fields inside the pdf and the application knows the password to open the file, is there any API available for achieving the task above. Any pointers in the right direction will be helpful.
 
Thanks
Hitesh

I would suggest you take a look at our Developer information on Reader opening secured PDFs (as long as you know the password) at:
