Secure files from your Office applications.
Keep others from copying or editing your PDF document by specifically restricting editing in Microsoft Word, Excel, or PowerPoint.
Add a password to your PDF file.
Prevent unauthorized access to your PDF files by encrypting them with a certificate or password that recipients have to enter before they can open or view them.
Customize your protection.
Apply protections to PDFs with the “Publish Sensitive Information” action in Acrobat Pro. You can redact, password protect a PDF, and save your file with edit and copy restrictions applied automatically.
Simplify document security for your team.
Create custom security policies to help everyone apply PDF password protection and permissions the same way every time.
How to add passwords and permissions to PDF files:
- Open a file in Acrobat and choose “Tools” > “Protect.”
- Select whether you want to restrict editing with a password or encrypt the file with a certificate or password.
