Apply password to PDF file using VBA

[siew2018]

I would like to apply simple password to a PDF that's created using VBA. Can this be done using Adobe SDK?

Anyone has sample code to share? Thanks heaps .

No, it cannot, as allowing the password across an insecure channel would not be a good idea.

What about encrypt the pdf file with password? Any sample code to share? Thanks in advance!

That's the same thing: setting a password is encrypting with a password. Still no.

If you are a C++ programmer you might be able to create a plug-in that does this.
