(1) activePDF utilizes the Windows CryptoAPI for generating our keys and encrypting/decrypting documents. You can tell if you have Strong Encryption by using RegEdit to navigate to the following key :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography\Defaults\Provider
If you see a subkey called "Microsoft Enhanced Cryptographic Provider v1.0" then you have strong encryption installed.
If you do not have strong encryption installed, it can be exported in several Microsoft products with few exceptions (see Microsoft's website for more info).
