Has anyone seen this error:

An error occurred during ADDWATERMARK operation in <CFPDF>.
Error: The password provided is either wrong or does not have sufficient permission to perform this action.

There is no password protection on the document. I'm using a very simple example right from the CFDocs. Help!

    I receive the same error when using cfpdf and action="setinfo".

    <cfpdf

    action="setinfo" source="TestPDF.pdf" info="#PDFData#" destination="TestPDF_1.pdf" overwrite="yes"

    I am using life LiveCycle Designer.  I use the built in template "Check Request" as the pdf.  I did not set any passwords initially and got the exact same error.  I then set the permissions for changes password and added password="Maverick1"  NO CHANGE.  I then set "Require a password to open document"  no change either. 

    I have also tried with the pdf in the web root of the site and completely outside of the root.

    Does Adobe have any answers for this or are they not even looking at it?

    An error occurred during SETINFO operation in <CFPDF>.

    Error: The password provided is either wrong or does not have sufficient permission to perform this action.
    The error occurred in F:\Inetpub\wwwroot\AFORMS\ModifyPDF\AddInfoToPDF.cfm: line 11
