What software is there which will let me create an encrypted PDF?

EasyPDF won't do it.

And the freeware version of CutePDF does not seem to help.

allowing the highest level of security for your PDF files. Settings
include password to open, password to change, disable printing, disable
text/graphics copying, disable commenting, disable text editing, disable
page addition.

Hi Franklin..

Check my website for the open source alternative for Adobe's Acrobat
for creating PDF docments. I suggest http://www.osalt.com/pdfcreator

It does support security, but only 40bit (at least in the version I
use) - perhaps the latest version has better encryption support.

best regards,

pdftk - a little command line app will encrypt an existing pdf (some
problems with ver. 1.6 pdf's reported)

guipdftk - a gui for pdftk <g>

get them both together

Mike,

if you would try this:

http://www.becyhome.de/download/BeCy...Edit233Eng.zip

(link to the download of the stand alone version)

The ink to the installer version is:

http://www.becyhome.de/download/BeCy...Edit233Eng.exe

Would that work for you, or do you get some kind of error? Have you checked
your hosts file? If your browser support blocked sites... is it in the
"blocked" list?

BTW: These links were copied from the web site, which works perfectly here!
