Can't speak to that, but make sure you have a big SAN to store all of your PDF's!

Questions have come up regarding the security of these reports once they are in the hands of recipients. I know we can use passwords to prevent editing but passwords create their own challenges due to typos, sharing, former employees, etc. Fortunately, we're not dealing with regulatory compliance issues but are concerned since reports contain verbiage and signatures that, if modified and/or copied for nefarious reasons, my create legal issues. We're not so concerned about preventing internal editing as much as preventing external recipients from possibly editing said documents. Is there a practical method or system that would lock a file for editing one the recipient has opened it without requiring a password?
