Hi

Thanks for your request. Unfortunately, currently, there is no way to set password to open the document. Currently you can specify only password to modify:

Hi

Thanks for your request. Yes, Aspose.Words supports opening encrypted document, but does not support encrypting document. I agree with you, that this is confusing a bit. But one thing is reading document and absolutely different encrypting them.
Best regards.
