      Description

      With the provided PDF file, it is not possible to use the Save As functionality. When attempting this an error message is displayed that states "You do not have permission or the credentials to save this document"

      The same functionality works when done in Adobe. The PDF security settings should allow this to happen.

        This looks to be a legitimate concern. The PDF is indeed encrypted and has specific permissions that specify it can't be modified. We incorrectly interpret this a disable save as. The annotation tools are disabled and thus the PDF can't be modified.

        Anyways we can address this in the next release.

        Updated save as code to do a "save as" if not modification have been made to the PDF as is the case when the no modifications has been set for permissions. If the user doesn't have the pro version a dialog will still be presented saying they can't save the changes.
