From what I've been able to find on the Adobe website so far, it seems
there are different kinds of pdfs. PDFs created with Acrobat Pro can be
digitally certified and locked to prevent the recipient from editing.
CFDocument allows you to add a password, and prevent edits as well, but it
is not the same as a digital certification. Does anyone else have any
experience with this?
What the project folks would like is to use ColdFusion to generate
certified pdfs, but I don't think this is possible, as from the docs I've
read so far, the pdf types are different.
PDFs are certified through the application of a digital certificate.
This is completely different from password protection. CF doesn't
support this, and if you use CF to modify a certified PDF, it will
break the certification.
To generate certified PDFs, you will need Adobe LiveCycle.
