I need to encrypt a PDF using a set password before the "Submit" finction is run. I have the sumbit button setup and want to add javascript to password protect before the pdf is part of an attachement of an email. This pdf form will be sent form outside users to a specific email address.

Why not? Can't he use this.encryptUsingPolicy() if he has created the security policy he wants to use?

He's talking about applying encryption on the client side, so (a) people will probably be using Reader; and (b) he can't define a policy on a remote system from a doc-level script even if they have Acrobat.

If that's the case then it's indeed not possible.

Acrobat.com uses a HTTPS protocol, secured… but not with a password.
