Re: Secure existing PDF with a password

[Richard Schoen <richard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This did it for me: 

itext pdf secure

Lots of samples , but you'll need some Java knowledge. 

Here's a specific one: 
https://viralpatel.net/blogs/password-protect-pdf-itext-java/

The main point is there's not always a free lunch available and you can't always expect ready made end-to-end code samples.

Sometimes you have to fish a little and then code it or engage experts $$$ if you don't have the knowledge.

I have hit the google. I've seen where people have said they have done it, but no examples.
