I'm not clear on what you are asking, but if it is "Can you apply a policy to a PDF usinng Reader?'  The answer is no. 

Reader can open "policy protected" PDFs, and the permissions allowed or restricted by the policy will be enforced in Reader.

To apply a policy to a PDF, you need Acrobat Pro (manual process), or you can use LiveCycle ES2\ES3 to automate the process of applying a policy to a PDF using the the Workbench process design tool or by writing Java code using the LiveCycle APIs.
