5 quick steps to start using this
service:
- Start exploring this service without any registration or Login to your NextPDF account (Register first if you do not have an account).
You get access to the Document Encryption service in demo
mode (you will have limited functionality). Important!
To get full access to the Document Encryption service, purchase the subscription at the
NextPDF Shop Section. After the payment procedure, your unique
login name and password will be a key to the full access to the Document Encryption
service. Upon next login the "You are in demo mode" label will disappear. (If for
some reason the label is still there after payment,
contact us and we will find
a solution).

Set Document Security web-form appears:
- Select security settings for your PDF document and click 'Save' button (you
can find the detailed description of all security settings available below).
- Download the encrypted version of your file by pressing on the link in "Processed
PDF" column. (you can always update the settings for your PDF files by clicking
on the "Update" link in "Set Document Security" Column).
The following security options are located in the
Set Document Security web-form:
Encryption Level.
Set the type of encryption for opening a password-protected document. The Acrobat

use a high encryption level (128-bit RC4). Be aware that anyone using an earlier
version of Acrobat cannot open a PDF document with a higher compatibility setting.
