I've been doing some reading and I think I've figured out what you are trying to do.
You have an encrypted pdf. You want to read it.
A 'better' solution would be to check out:
https://github.com/alaingilbert/ineptpdfIt indicates you might need two supplementary python modules (PyWin, and pycyrpto)
Pycrypto you already have
Quote:
nx@nx:~$ sudo pip install pycrypto
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): pycrypto in /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages

PyWin is easily obtained via
Code:
sudo pip install PyWin
It gives an error on installation, but when I checked, it was there.
Quote:
nx@nx:~$ sudo pip install PyWin

I don't have any DRM files to test so, I don't know.
The last part is to download and unpack
https://github.com/alaingilbert/ineptpdf/archive/master.zip into a directory.
Use your terminal to go to that directory, for example,
Code:
cd ~/Downloads/ineptpdf-master
and then once in the directory
Code:
python ineptpdf.py
