Secured PDF from Illustrator CS6

I've been banging my head against the wall on this for awhile and I can't figure out what I'm missing. My script updates the filename and date on an Illustrator file and exports a secured PDF that will not allow anyone to edit or print the pdf. I can get it secured and but I can not figure out how to disable printing.

 

Here is my scritp as it stands:

 

-- System Date

tell (current date) toget (it'smonthasinteger) & "/" & day& "/" & (it'syearasinteger)

setmgDatetotheresultasstring

 

tellapplication "Adobe Illustrator"

 

  -- Filename

          tellapplication "Adobe Illustrator" tosetmgNameto (nameofdocument 1)

          settheFilePathtofile pathofdocument 1 asstring

 

          settheoldDelimstoAppleScript'stext item delimiters

          setAppleScript'stext item delimitersto ":"

          setthePathItemstotext itemsoftheFilePath

          setAppleScript'stext item delimiterstotheoldDelims

          setparsedPathtoitems 1 thru ((countofitemsofthePathItems) - 1) ofthePathItems

          setAppleScript'stext item delimitersto ":"

          setparentPathtoparsedPathasstring

          setAppleScript'stext item delimiterstotheoldDelims

 

          settext item delimitersofAppleScriptto ""

          ifmgNamecontains ".ai" then

                    setaCounttocounteverycharacterofmgName

                    setaCounttoaCount - 3

                    setmgNametocharacters 1 thruaCountofmgNameasstring

                    setmgNametomgNameasstring

          endif

 

          setsavePDFPathtoparentPath& ":" & mgName& ".pdf"

 

  -- Date

          setcontentsoftext frame "date" ofdocument 1 tomgDate

          setcontentsoftext frame "filename" ofdocument 1 tomgName

 

  --PDF Save Options

          setpdfSaveOptionsto {class:PDF save options, compatibility:Acrobat 8, enable access:false, require doc password:true, require perm password:true, preserve editability:false, permission password:"Test", allow printing:pdf 40 print none, changes allowed:pdf 40 no changes}

  savecurrent documentinfilesavePDFPathaspdfwith optionspdfSaveOptions

 

endtell

 

 

It will create the pdf and it is secured but the printing is still enabled and I can't figure out how to disable it and help would be appreciated. I have included a screen shot of the security panel in Acrobat showing that printing is still allowed. All I want the end user to be able to do is view the pdf.
