Currently loading encrypted PDF files fails with this message:

glib: Document is encrypted

Could we have a password provided via arguments?

Hi @BasixKOR,

Sure, why not. Could you supply a test PDF?

I can't give you the PDF file I have since it contains my private information but you can drop any PDF files here and get a example of protected PDFs: https://smallpdf.com/protect-pdf/

I made an encryted PDF for testing:

nipguide-protected.pdf

Password "banana". Encrypted with AES128 I think.

@jcupitt
add "password" option to pdfload
cb78b1b 
loads at least AES128-encrypted PDFs

pdfiumload needs a similar feature

see #2635

OK, seems to work. I tested with:

vips copy nipguide-protected.pdf[password=banana,page=12] x.png

To make:

x

This will be in 8.13.

pdfiumload needs a similar option.
