Finally, save the updated file using Save method of the Document object.
Document document = new Document("Decrypt.ps", "password");
// decrypt PS
document.Decrypt();

document.Save("Decrypt_out.doc");

It enables you to control the way you restrict the content using the ProtectionType enumeration parameter. You can set your document to read-only by using the following lines of code.
Document document = new Document("input.doc");

doc.Protect(ProtectionType.ReadOnly, "password");
// call save method while passing SaveFormat.Dotm

What is PS File Format
A PostScript file is a text file that contains a description of a page or document to be printed. It is typically created by a word processor or other application, and then saved in the PS format. The file can be printed by any printer that supports the PostScript language.PS files are usually stored in one of two ways: as a single page, or as a multi-page document. Single page PS files are typically used for printing a single page, such as a letter or an invoice. Multi-page PS files are used for printing documents that span multiple pages, such as a book or a report. When a PS file is printed, the printer reads the file and interprets the instructions contained within it. The printer then produces a printed version of the document.PS files are typically much larger than other types of files, such as PDFs. This is because they contain a lot of detailed information about the document to be printed. For this reason, it is important to make sure that your printer has enough memory to store the entire PS file.PS files can be opened and edited with a text editor, such as Microsoft Word or Adobe Acrobat. However, it is important to be careful when editing a PS file, as even a small change can result in the file being unreadable by the printer. If you need to make changes to a PS file, it is best to save a copy of the file first, so that you can revert back to the original if necessary.
