Dear all,

I receive an error message "File size bigger than maximum of 6.5 MB' in CryptoPHPDOCX.inc:196", the file I'm trying to encrypt is indeed larger than 6.5 Mb. Is their a reason why this limitation is set? I would really like to encrypt bigger files. Can I change this limit manually and accept performance issues?

Kind regards,

Ralf Bardoel

Hello,

The current version of phpdocx doesn't allow to encrypt DOCX files larger than 6.5MB. There's a warning about this limitation on:

http://www.phpdocx.com/api-documentation/cryptophpdocx/encrypt-Word-document-with-PHP

When DOCX files are bigger than 6.5MB the workflow to encrypt them is diferent (XML files are splitted instead of encrypt single files). It's not a performance limitation.

PDF files don't have this size limitation when being encrypted.

It's a work in progress to support DOCX files bigger than 6.5MB that will be available in a future version of phpdocx, but there's no release date for it yet.

Regards.
