    PDF Stampter is working fine. It stamps the book correctly and the password is set to the customers email address. What I’d like to know is how do I change the security settings after the book is stamped?

    I can open the file with the customer’s email address. Navigate to file properties/security Click change settings. It requests another password to change the settings. This password is not the customer’s email address. It is not the key set in the PDF stamper settings and it is not the site’s admin password. What is it? As the product owner, I should be able to change the settings. Manually restamping the file does not set the password to the customer’s email address.

    I think you are talking about the “Owner Password”. I had it in the settings before but customers started to get confused with two different types of password so I removed it. Usually the admin doesn’t need to modify the stamped PDF file as it is a customer only copy so the owner password is set to null. What is your usecase for the owner password?

    One of my customers bought an ebook last week and never downloaded the files. The encrypted links expired after 24 hours. Since then I fixed a typo in the book. When he requested new links today, I can easily create new encrypted links for the non-stamped content, but there’s no way to do it for the stamped content. I manually stamped the corrected book, but there’s no way to add a password to a manually stamped book set to the customer’s email address. I want to be able to do it through Adobe Acrobat when I need to. That’s the use case.

    I added the “Owner Password” field back in the settings menu. Please get a new build of PDF stamper from here to get this option:
