Change security restrictions for a PDF

POST https://api.pdfrest.com/restricted-pdf

This request demonstrates how to modify security restrictions for a PDF that already has a permissions password applied.

To make changes to a document that is already protected by a permissions password, use the current_permissions_password form-data field set to the correct password.

New restrictions may be applied by setting a restrictions[] form-data body parameter for each restriction to apply to your document. Select from any of the following:

• printlow_ (forbids all printing)
• printhigh_ (forbids high-quality printing)
• editdocumentassembly
• editfillandsignformfields_
• editannotations_
• editcontent_
• copycontent_
• accessibilityoff_
