Thank you for the answers, I am try to findhave edited my questions.

It is a known fact that encrypting the files increases the file entropy difference between. You can see the average entropy values of encrypted and non-encrypted PDF files. Inversions of the various resources they find approximately non-encrypted entropy as about 7.70 and encrypted as 7different files in this paper (see figure 2).80 however After I am calculating the encrypted entropy as 5.99. That means after theread this paper I check out my encryption the entropy ofalgorithm and I notice that I was using base64 encoding while overwriting the PDF files is decreasingfile and that contradicts withwas decreasing the resourcesfile entropy. What it can be happened? WhySo my results are contradicts with the results of the resources?problem is solved.

Low Encrypted Entropy on PDF File

I am try to find the entropy difference between encrypted and non-encrypted PDF files. In the various resources they find approximately non-encrypted entropy as about 7.70 and encrypted as 7.80 however I am calculating the encrypted entropy as 5.99. That means after the encryption the entropy of the PDF files is decreasing that contradicts with the resources. What it can be happened? Why my results are contradicts with the results of the resources?
