    feature rqst: index secure pdfs w password

    I understand that pdfs with security set are not indexed. Much of our product literature and lots of tech notes are in pdf. We set security on almost all pdfs to prevent competitors from adding their contact info to our literature or otherwise changing the document. (Learned that lesson the hard way.)

    If at all possible, it would be extremely helpful if you could find a way to add indexing of secure pdfs. Maybe just index the pdf title for those pdfs you have the security password for.

    You can already do this with the current version of Zoom (Version 4.1). If you are using an older version, you can download the latest from:
    http://www.wrensoft.com/zoom/whatsnew.html

    Click on "Configure" -> "Scan Options" and check the "Use password:" option. Here you can specify a password to be used for scanning any protected PDF files.
