Do you want to encrypt the ZIP contents using encryption methods provided by
the ZIP format? Or do you want the content files to be encrypted
individually by methods provided by their own format or externally?

If the former was true, you would be on the wrong list --- you would best
look for some list on archives, zip files, etc. (Just as a hint: The JRE Zip
streams don't seem to support encryption or decryption. Alternative libs may
do, though, e.g. https://truezip.dev.java.net/)

In the latter case doing PDF encryption is easy, look for setEncyption()
methods, e.g. on PdfWriter. In that case, though, I'm surprised you missed
chapter 12.3 "Encrypting a PDF document" in the second edition book...
