PDF Encryption and Security
Overview The Adobe PDF document format has been in development since 1991, and from as early as 1994 included security features that were aimed at preventing users from being able to make changes to a published documents. This involved the use of encryption as the only practical way of protecting information. The basis of PDF encryption is to prevent users viewing the file if they are not authorized, and if they are authorized, to control what they can do with the file (i.e. whether printing is allowed, etc.).
