password for pdf
how to create password for a pdf, which software to use , can someone help me
i have the same question!!!lol.if anyone can help
I use PDFCreator http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcreator/. It installs as a printer for creating PDFs. After you select it as the printer for a document (even an existing PDF) and say ok, the PDF dialg pops up. Click on the "Options" box. Choose PDF from the list of formats and then the Security tab.Check the password options you want, then Save. At the PDF dialog, when you save the document, you will be prompted to enter the password. Remember to reset the security setting when you don't want passwords on a PDF. Good luck.
Adobe Acrobat Writer can also create passwords. but it's expensive. The question is whether the password protection is equally effective if you use PDFCreator.
If you have a Mac, you can use PDFKit, apparently. I have never personally used it before though.

Those who have the free Open Office word processing application should also be able to password protect any document they print as a PDF.

I have Nitro PDF linked to my MS Word. Can it create a password for PDF too?
I am using Adobe Professional and I think the password protection is effective.
I haven't seen PDFCreator yet but Adobe's interface is easy to use. Try to use the help menu in creating password for PDF.
