Is it possible to add security(self lock/protect/self-destruct upon “three unsuccessful password attempts”.) to PDF documents generated from AEM?

Hi Swani,

I don't think you can alter the PDF plugin which opens the pdf file whether it is open in AEM or browser.. Ideally, this should be taken care at the pdf level. For instance, any PDF is password protected then AEM or browser does not do anything expect just open the file the it should be.
