You might want to ensure you're also checking for password protected files. I've been working on building a group of items that works using the latest itextsharp dll.

Hi Himadri,

Our free VBO uses iTextSharp.dll to handle basic PDF actions. You can download from DigitalExchange to use directly or investigate the code.

Happy automation!
