Anuj, your question about unzipping and decryption a file doesn't belong to this thread, which is about printing reports to password-protected PDF files. Please continue in the thread you've created for your question.

I am receiving a zipped and password protected file from external system. How can I unzip and decrypt a file with password in Dynamics AX? Then I'll read the file data.

Absolutely agree with Kambiz, do a .dll with the logic and incorporate the password in the document and convert it to into the .pdf.

For SSRS, I think there must have this option because .NET is a great and powerful tool. Check it once from there.

Cheers... happy DAXing... :)

In short, you have to use from .NET to write a managed code or custom assembly in order to protect the given PDF with password, then call it from your x++, run it as a job or call it within your current x++ class with the required args.

If your are working with SSRS, the logic is the same, except you could write the managed code directly inside SSRS and no need to x++ (but and unless you might use x++, depends on your situation).

Sorry guys, I could not help any more cause still we are finding the solution from Ax end. We could not make it till today but one way I can give you, it may help you but not sure how much it will help; make your document in word format and make this document password protected with the help of 3rd party software or may be help of wrapper class of Ax and then convert into the document in pdf. I am not sure about this process but conceptually it can be done. Best of luck and happy DAXing.
