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

  Our company sends out PDF reports to clients, primarily via email.   
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?
