Thanks in advance. I'm new at Adobe so this is probably a stupid question.

 

I want to make a master of a PDF that can't be edited. However I want people to be able to save a copy that unlocks the form so it can be fully editable to them. Can't figure out how to make this work.

 

Thanks again

There's nothing in the PDF file format that allows for that. You can set the file itself as read-only, but once it's saved to the local computer of the users they will be able to change that.
