Add Password Protection
Once you have uploaded your PDF, you can choose to add a password to secure your PDF file.
To do so, either drag & drop your file into the box above or upload it from your device or cloud storage. Afterwards, you can enter a new password for your file to make sure it is password protected.
Password Protect a PDF
Protect your PDF files by adding a password that prevents people from copying or printing your PDF document.
We provide an easy way to secure PDF files using a password of your choice.
Why Protect a PDF?
Adding password protection to your PDF can serve many purposes. It ensures that only people you gave the password to can open and view the content of your file.
On the other hand, you can prevent the people you send the PDF to from copying or printing your PDF document.
