Hello!

I recently extended your module for a client's site, to use secure PDFs. They required that people not be able to download or print the PDFs, so I extended this module to include that functionality.

Along the way, I ran into a problem with multiple items per scribdfield, and created a workaround in the form of a callback function as well as documenting how to use the module in a readme.

I've spent some time tidying things up, testing, and creating an administrative interface, so I hope that these modifications will prove useful to someone.

To use this patch, navigate to the directory above the scribfield module, and run
patch -p0 < scribdfield-add-secure-pdfs.patch

Oh, and I can also help out as a co-maintainer of this module.

Hey glass.dimly,

Congrats on becoming a co-maintainer. I see you haven't committed the above patch yet. I'm happy to test if that would help out.

But what I'm really interested in is getting a D7 port of this module working... including the ipaper secure functionality you've added. Do you have any interest in the D7 port?

Thanks,
Ben

I would like to get this module ported to D7, I think I can get to this in the next few months, which may not be the timeline you need.

I am running the patch on a client site, and it's working fine, but I would appreciate if someone did test it and let me know if you had any problems.

I have taken the patch provided by glass.dimly and worked a bit on it (leaving out some of the things it added that had nothing obvious to do with this issue), and the result is now committed: http://drupalcode.org/project/scribdfield.git/commit/d857a88
