Screenshot of message and version

When I try to open a encrypted PDF file appears a message saying "This PDF file is encrypted and can't be opened."
Comment 1 Aron Budea 2016-08-04 00:30:03 UTC
Since there's no sample attached, I tried with an example encrypted PDF from [1] ("PDF Example - Password protection" in particular), got a password entry dialog, but even with correct password "test" supplied, this was displayed instead of the document:
"This PDF file is encrypted and can't be opened."

I can confirm there is an issue, but not sure if it's the exact same issue as reported (there could be different formats, plus there's also bug 70705 that shows this message with certain unencrypted files).
Version used: LibreOffice 5.2.0.4/Windows 7.

Can you attach a sample encrypted PDF with the password? (obviously with no sensitive data, the simpler the better)
Return status of bug report to UNCONFIRMED with your reply.

Encrypted test file

I attached a test PDF file with the same problem. The password to open it is "1234"

regards!

Thank you for the sample.
Issue reproduced, tried with some earlier versions as well, happens with 4.2.0.4, too, and in Linux.
