Can I use this to add password protection to a pdf file?

Yes. You can protect by creating a password required to open the pdf AND/OR to edit or print. There are separate options for certificate security (for groups of people signing and editing common files) as well as file encryption.

As far as I can see, it only has password protection. When I enter my password, my files are immediately accessible. I couldn't see in the instructions that it has any other functions, and password protection is the only thing I want.

Not sure, my scanner has the software to create scanned docs into PDF format. I use this software to convert MS Office files to PDF.

It does not. Creates a pdf you can rename so it can be saved but not searchable so to speak

Yes, it is. You can use whatever encryption software you like. Do you have something particular in mind such as TrueCrypt, PGP, or even encrypted disk images? All of that should work fine.

That does not appear to be an option. You will need to merge the PDF documents together after you drop them to a PC.

There are several questions about filling in PDFs and every answer says to convert to word. That works, but the questioners may be asking another, more subtle question: can you create FILLABLE PDFS. The answer is yes. You need to enable non protected fields just like macros. Frankly, this works much better on Adobe even though I love Wondershare, but it can be done if you have some programming skill. This is creating a fillable form with the software, not just a read only PDF document. Some computers and browsers won't accept certain formats for fill ins because a common virus uses "read only" files to bypass security, but actually contains executable PE's, drivers or .exes embedded in the fill boxes. It can be tricky to disable execution but allow fill ins!

Not very well. PDF's will cause restarts and FC's I wouldn't recommend this tab.

Follow the directions and put in your password. I am a senior and I did it without any problems. It was fairly easy. Make sure you can find it on your computer choices for printers after putting in the password.

You can use it to convert a .pdf to .doc and then edit but you can not edit the .pdf directly.

No there are no built in passwords but if that is what you are looking for you will need to download a program to do so

Yes. I would read the Adobe Cc web site for more details as there are caveats.

I have never personally done this thru the included software as I have never tried it, I have always used a free PDF solution.

Yes. I can scan few pages and saved as a PDF file in my computer. It also includes an option to send as an email through the computer which I do not try.

Yes. The Open PDF function brings up an initial dialog that allows you to choose between converting only the text from the file or also converting the text in images contained in the file.The fidelity of the conversion depends upon image quality and fonts to some extent, but this is true of any scanned image. I have converted downloaded PDF mathematical papers producing legible text with relatively few errors that can often be picked up with the spell checker. In some cases, more difficult formatting may have to be repaired. My only irritation is that the formatting process uses a lot of styles. All and all, the PDF import is a good tool for repurposing text from the original PDF. PDF documents from WP are normally high quality. You have options for the quality ranging from Commerical Printing, PDF/A level A or level B compliance, and Publishing online. These produce different file sizes. Incidentally, WP uses the OEM Omnipage OCR engine to drive its conversion.

In response to the 7th post from Paladin Dude: The option to add a page is available with the software it comes with? Does it allow you to insert it anywhere or just to the end? Can it scan and save 300-400 pages to a pdf file? Also, after it is scanned, can it be locked so that if it's saved to a cd it can't be copied?Thanks for your help.
