I'm receiving some bank-statements in pdf format that I need to merge with 
internally produced pdf reports.  The bank-statements are encrypted, the 
other files are not.  I do not have the password for decrypting the bank 
statements. 

I tried commenting the sections in PDFMergerUtility that check for 
encryption and ended up with a document with the correct number of total 
pages, but all were blank.

Is there any work-around to be able to do this merge?
