Text Control PDF import now supports encrypted files. A PDF may be encrypted, and may optionally be protected by a user password and an owner password.

In order to manipulate the merge process and to inject custom logic, each merge element such as merge fields and merge blocks fire events. These events return the merged field, information about the location of a field and provide access to data that is used to merge the document.
In these events, a DataRowAdapter provides access to the DataTableAdapter which gains access to the child table names, column names, the DataTable, the data rows and the table name. Additionally, the new FieldMergedEventArgs property MergeBlockName returns the block name in case the field is embedded in a merge block.
