Key Features

Supports user and owner password

Two types of passwords are available:
User password: With a document open password (also known as a user password), users must type in the password you specify to open the PDF.
Owner password: When you set only a permissions password (also known as a owner password), recipients don’t need a password to open the document. However, they must type the permissions password to set or change the restricted features.
If the PDF is secured with both types of passwords, it can be opened with either password. However, only the permissions password allows the user to change the restricted features. Because of the added security, setting both types of passwords is often beneficial.

So, say you’ve been working on a PDF document, and it’s your pride and joy. Maybe it’s a research paper, or a manuscript – whatever it is, you don’t want it to fall into the wrong hands.
