How to lock Microsoft Word Document?

Sometimes people want to protect their word document and make it secured. Here are two ways to do that

1. Set the password for your word document.

Do you know that Microsoft Word document provides encryption function? Followings are the full details about it.

Step1: Open the word document which you need to encrypt. Go to menu -> Prepare -> Encrypt document.

Step2: it will launch a new window; here you should type the password twice for the password confirmation.

Step2: it will launch a new window; here you should type the password twice for the password confirmation.

Tips: In case, you want to cancel the password, it is in the same procedure, but the difference is you just need to leave the password box as blank, save the file then done!

2. Using Word to PDF converter

As everyone knows that the PDF document is not editable. Without permission, no copy, no print etc. So a good word to PDF converter can secure your word document perfectly. Here I am using Simpo Word to PDF as an example.

Step1: Download and launch Simpo Word to PDF.

Step2: Import your word document by clicking “Add Files”.

Step3: Click “Setting” to set the copyright.

Here, you can set the password and limit the user behavior, such as disable printing, disable changing etc.

Step4: Click “Start”, your word document is starting converting into PDF with high protection.

    Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
