How to Password-Protect PDF Form for Design Editing in Adobe Experience Manager 6.5

Hello:

 

I have a dynamic PDF form that can be filled in. I want to password-protect it so that only those with the password can open and edit/view the underlying code in the designer.

 

However, I don't want Adobe (or any PDF reader) to prompt for a password for regular viewing or editing. How can I achieve this?

 

I attempted to use File -> Form Properties -> PDF Security, but it didn't work.

 

I'm using Adobe Experience Manager - Forms (version: 6.5.0.20220509.49).

 

 

Thank you

The PDF-Security settings is the right spot for this. Select the allowed changes and then save your form. You'll be asked to set a password for the, which will be neccessary to edit the form in Designer but not when viewing in a PDF viewer.
