Maybe...I found an another bug in this function.
I made a PDF which is encrypted by "pdftk" with allowing brosing and
printing. My OS is Mac OS X 10.3.7.
http://www.accesspdf.com/pdftk/
Preview.app can open it with password.
When I use print command from menu bar, print dialog appears with preview
and save as PDF buttons are gray out. Good! This is the action we expected.
But I select Output Option popup on print dialog and check the check-box
"save as file", we will find a gray-outed "PDF" menu and NOT-gray-outed
"PostScript" menu.
We can save encrypted PDF as a PostScript.
The PostScript file could be browsed by MacGhostScript application with any
password.
I think it is awful situation.
