Question

How do you change Document Restrictions Summary?

I just recently started using Adobe Acrobat 9.  I am recreating a document which will be saved as a pdf form (where the user will complete and return to my attention).  The previous document that was used at my company shows the following under the Security Document Properties:

Security Method:  No Security, Can be Opened by all versions of Acrobat

Under Document Restrictions Summary--Changing the Document, Document Assembly, and Creation of the Template Pages are not allowed.

This new form needs to mirror the previous security settings.  Is the a way to just alter the Document Restrictions Summary page without having create a security policy?

Many thanks.

    Have you looked at using "Password" security in the PDF.

    Thank you very much for your response.

    Is this the only way to achieve this? I had a feeling this was available

    in previous versions of standard?

    No, you can also use the Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES software:
