mupdf: Open a password secured PDF.
$ mupdf -p ${password} ${filename}
try on your machine
The command "mupdf -p ${password} ${filename}" is used to open a PDF file using the MuPDF viewer, with the option to supply a password for encrypted PDFs.
Here is a breakdown of the command and its components:
- "mupdf" is the name of the command or executable to run the MuPDF viewer.
- "-p" is an option or flag provided to the MuPDF viewer, which indicates that a password will be passed.
- "${password}" is a placeholder for the actual password that you need to provide. Make sure to replace it with the actual password you want to use.
- "${filename}" is also a placeholder for the name of the PDF file you want to open. Replace it with the actual name of the file you want to open.
To use this command, you would typically replace "${password}" with the actual password for the encrypted PDF you want to open, and "${filename}" with the actual file name. For example, if the password is "mypassword" and the file is named "document.pdf", the command would be:
mupdf -p mypassword document.pdf
This will launch the MuPDF viewer, prompt for the provided password, and open the PDF file for viewing.
