Under the Conversion Menu in PStill . . . If the generated PDF 1. has different owner and end-user passwords and 2. if Disallow Printing, 3. Disallow Modification, 4. Disallow Copy (of text and images) and 5. Disallow Annotation are selected in PStill with 6. 'Strong encyption' also selected it would be difficult for someone to get into the file.

Also, PStill is only $69 versus a heck of a lot more for full Acrobat to get that feature.

Furthermore, as long as the file is a PDF that is originally generated in ANY application such as Word you can still use PStill.

No, I do not work for Stone Studio. I am just auser of PStill.

I do not know if this would meet your needs but why not just attach a

Studio's Create and PStill to send files I do no want others to read.

William's suggestion is very good. This has the benefit of not needing as much setup and/or training. You do lose the signing part of the equation, so that you can verify the sender and content of the message. PDF has signing
options too, though you will need the full Acrobat to use that.

We're venturing off topic here, but I just wanted to add that not all PDF security is respected by all PDF readers; if someone really wants what's in your PDF, there's bound to be a PDF reader on one platform or another that
will crack it -- especially since PDF can also be opened and edited by
illustration programs and imported into layout programs nowadays, all of
which could potentially expose your content.
