Thanks for your inquiry. Please check following VB code snippet and documentation link for encrypting PDF file. Hopefully it will help you to accomplish the task.

'open document<o:p></o:p>

Dim document As New Document("input.pdf")

'encrypt PDF

document.Encrypt("user", "owner", 0, CryptoAlgorithm.RC4x128)

'save updated PDF

document.Save("output.pdf")

Please feel free to contact us for any further assistance.
