Passwords on Acrobat Pro X

Hi
 
The company I work for is working on a project to create secure forms.
 
We want to be able to create a form, distribute it with individual passwords so that we can send it to many different people and they could perhaps put their personal information in place and have a password for them and us to access the PDF but no one else could.
 
I know you can put passwords on in X but that appears to only be for editing purposes as it will not allow us to distribute the file afterwards.
 
Can any one please advise?

This can be accomplished through Digital Signatures. There is a wealth of information on creating and using them in the link below. Scroll down and check out some of the Technical White papers:

Great i'll have a look at that as soon as possible and see if that's what we're after.

I'll let you know.
