Give password protection to existing pdf file

Am trying to give password to an existing pdf file. It is working for a jasper report which is saved with .jrxml or .jasper but how to give it for pdf file.

Sample code:

public static void main(String[] args) {
    String USER="Sai123";
    String OWNER="Sairam";

    try {
        InputStream input=new FileInputStream(new File("D:\\Project1\\EmailSendExample\\WebContent\\PDFiles\\AnnexI.pdf")); 
        OutputStream file = new FileOutputStream(new File("D:\\Test.pdf"));
        /*PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(input);
        PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, new FileOutputStream("D:\\Test.pdf"));
        stamper.setEncryption(PdfWriter.ALLOW_PRINTING, OWNER,USER, PdfWriter.ENCRYPTION_AES_128 | PdfWriter.DO_NOT_ENCRYPT_METADATA);
            stamper.close();
            reader.close();*/

        JRPdfExporter exporter = new JRPdfExporter();

        //exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.INPUT_FILE, new File("D:\\Project1\\EmailSendExample\\WebContent\\PDFiles\\AnnexI.pdf"));
        exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.OUTPUT_FILE,new File("D:\\Test.pdf"));
        exporter.setParameter(JRPdfExporterParameter.OWNER_PASSWORD, "Sai123");
        exporter.setParameter(JRPdfExporterParameter.USER_PASSWORD, "Sairam");
        exporter.setParameter(JRPdfExporterParameter.IS_ENCRYPTED, Boolean.TRUE);
        exporter.exportReport();
        System.out.println("Report Generation Complete");

        file.close();

    } catch (Exception e) {

        e.printStackTrace();
    }

it is throwing error like

net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRException: No input source supplied to the exporter.
at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRAbstractExporter.setInput(JRAbstractExporter.java:922)
at net.sf.jasperreports.engine.export.JRPdfExporter.exportReport(JRPdfExporter.java:296)
at pdfpassword.main(pdfpassword.java:45)

Thanks in advance for your valuable suggestions.

According to me,we cannot provide pdf file as input to JRexporter.  so in order to make existing pdf password protected use the code below.It works for me.

code: 

private static String USER_PASSWORD = "password";
private static String OWNER_PASSWORD = "naveen";
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
try
{
PdfReader pdfReader = new PdfReader("/home/base/Desktop/newtask/ext.pdf");
PdfStamper pdfStamper = new PdfStamper(pdfReader,new FileOutputStream("/home/base/Desktop/newtask/ext1.pdf"));
pdfStamper.setEncryption(USER_PASSWORD.getBytes(),OWNER_PASSWORD.getBytes(), PdfWriter.ALLOW_PRINTING,PdfWriter.ENCRYPTION_AES_128);
pdfStamper.close();
      } catch (FileNotFoundException e)
      {
         e.printStackTrace();
      } catch (com.itextpdf.text.DocumentException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

I see this line commented -

//exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.INPUT_FILE, new File("D:\\Project1\\EmailSendExample\\WebContent\\PDFiles\\AnnexI.pdf"));

And exception talks about input -

net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRException: No input source supplied to the exporter.
