There are several ways to open a document. The easiest is to specify a file name.

def open_document_from_file(infile):

    # Open document
    document = ap.Document(infile)
    print("Pages: " + str(len(document.pages)))

Open existing PDF document from stream

import aspose.pdf as ap
import io

def open_document_from_stream(infile):
    with io.FileIO(infile, "r") as stream:
        # Open document
        document = ap.Document(stream)
        print("Pages: " + str(len(document.pages)))

Open encrypted PDF document

import aspose.pdf as ap

def open_document_encrypted(infile):
    password = "P@ssw0rd"
    # Open document
    document = ap.Document(infile, password)
    print("Pages: " + str(len(document.pages)))
