Quick Start: Invoking a service using base64 in a Microsoft .NET project

The following C# code example invokes a process named MyApplication/EncryptDocument from a Microsoft .NET project using Base64 encoding. (See Invoking LiveCycle using Base64 encoding.)

An unsecured PDF document based on a PDF file named Loan.pdf is passed to the LiveCycle process. The process returns a password-encrypted PDF document that is saved as a PDF file named EncryptedPDF.pdf .

/* 
    * Ensure that you create a .NET client assembly that uses  
    * base64 encoding. This is required to populate a BLOB  
    * object with data or retrieve data from a BLOB object. 
    *  
    * For information, see "Invoking LiveCycle using Base64 Encoding" in  
    * Programming with AEM forms
