Câu hỏi thường gặp
What type of encryption is used?
SeerKits applies industry-standard PDF encryption compatible with Adobe Acrobat and major PDF readers. Full AES-256 protection is available via Seer Pro.
Can I set separate passwords for opening and editing?
The web tool sets an open password by default. Owner passwords that restrict printing or copying unlock in Seer PDF on desktop.
What if I forget the password?
Passwords cannot be recovered if lost. Store your password securely before encrypting, and keep an unencrypted backup when possible.
