Bank statements and business documents are now in PDF format on your electronic devices and a big question arises in your mind that what kind of software will provide the best security and safety to my valuable documents. If you are looking for a solution, you are in the right place. Now I will teach you how to make PDF password protected.
Wondershare PDFelement gives you the best security to all your important and sensitive PDF documents. You can either create open password or permission password to protect your documents from being viewed, copied, edited and printed.
Besides, its editing and converting features are also amazing. It can edit all your texts and images in a PDF. If you want to add, delete, rotate, extract pages you can easily accomplish the tasks. The OCR features makes scanned PDF searchable and editable without losing original layouts and formatting.
Wondershare PDFelement gives you two different options: you can either choose "open password" or "permission password" to lock your data. The former protects unauthorized viewing, while the latter protects unauthorized copying, editing and printing.
After installing PDFelement, open it on your computer. On the bottom left corner of the Home window, you will see an "Open" button, click it. Then select the file you want to protect, click "Open" to import it. On Mac, you need to click the "Open File" button.
Now click the "Protect" tab which you will see on the main menu. Click on "Password" following "Require a password to change security settings and access specific functions". Enter a strong password. Retype it to confirm. Lastly click "OK" button. You have successfully saved your file from copying threats, isn't it simple.
On Mac, you need to navigate to the right side main menu. Click "Protection" to expand the tools. Click "Encrypt with Password" and now you can choose the security method. Mark the "Require a password to open the document". Try to use the highest level of encryption in this way. Click "OK" to save the password.
