Encrypting a PDF File
When converting a scanned document to a PDF file, you can encrypt the file. You can set an
encryption level, a document open password, a permission password, and use permissions
for the created PDF file. The higher the encryption level is, the higher the security level is.
A document open password is intended to open an encrypted PDF file. A document open
password cannot be the same as a permission password. You can enter up to 32 characters.
A permission password is intended to control printing, extracting, editing, or other operations
for encrypted PDF files. A permission password cannot be the same as a document open
password. You can enter up to 32 characters.
• [Encrypted PDF] can be selected only if [File Format] is set to [PDF] or [HC-PDF]. [PDF/A] cannot be selected.
• To encrypt a PDF file, you must set a document open password or permission password.
• The permission setting items for printing and editing a PDF file vary depending on the encryption level.
• A permission to print a document, a permission to extract text and graphic, and a permission to change a document
are displayed only if you select [Enable] or [Apply Default Password] for [Permissions Password].
