FAQ
Questions people ask
Does Protect PDF add a password?
The current browser-first implementation adds visible protection markings and metadata. True password encryption needs a backend PDF engine.
What does the protection output include?
NovaKit saves a new PDF with a protection notice and document metadata so the file is clearly marked.
Why is full encryption not handled in the browser?
Reliable PDF encryption and permission control require lower-level PDF features that are not fully supported by the current browser libraries.
