PDF 1.4 encryption support

Info

This update enables processing of PDF documents using the high
encryption level of Acrobat 5 (PDF 1.4). Now you can print and
layout PDF documents with Acrobat 5 security or use PDF command
line tools with them. PDF 1.4 encryption features encryption key
lengths in the range from 40 to 128 bits. The previous PDF 1.1
encryption supported keys with 40 bits only.
Also fixed:
- Printing PDF documents where character outlines of CID encoded
fonts are used for path construction could result in wrong
visible output, i.e. text could appear in wrong color.
- Printing or layouting PDF files which contain both CID encoded
fonts and inline images could fail.
- Added support for PDF files which contain TrueType fonts
without a named encoding and with a differences array. The
treatment of such TrueType fonts is not covered by the PDF
standard, but documents with such TrueType fonts can be
generated using QuarkXPress and Adobe Distiller.
- Improved fault tolerance for PDF documents with improper
resource dictionaries.
NOTE: Before installing this update, the update installer itself
must be updated with one of the updates u0300-u0306.
