Details

When a PDF document is assembled, pages can be rotated, inserted, and deleted, and bookmarks and thumbnail images can be added.
The PDFASSEMBLY option can affect the Document Assembly document property.
The document property values for PDF security are not changed when you set PDFSECURITY=NONE. The results are the same as not specifying the option at all.
