I found one other thread on this subject where the requirement was to encrypt a PDF file w/ a cert.

See below:
 <http://www.adobeforums.com/.3c05eda1/3>

Lots of references there to the Javascript SDK...to make sure I have the right one, I downloaded it from here:
 <http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=acrobat%5Fsdk>

I'm reading thru the js_developer_guide.pdf to see how encryption is supposed to work. There's a section titled Security and a sub section called Encrypting files using certificates.

I see on p 178 of this doc about creating a new self sign digital ID. I'm wondering if code in this section can be modified to encrypt the document w/ a user selected cert instead of creating on on the fly?
