I like it but wish there was an edit instead of erase and text to change something. There may be but I'm not aware of it so a webinar would be very helpful.

I did a lot of shopping , signed up with a few other apps, once I tried this one,I went back to all the ones I was on a free trial with and cancelled . This was the one. It was easy and I was able to use it the way I wanted immediately and have been using it almost every day.

Right-click on the folder. Select Properties from the menu. On the dialog that appears, click the General tab. Click the Advanced button, then select Encrypt content to secure data.
Check Advanced>Security>Show Security Properties for the list of what you can specifically restrict on an individual PDF. You can specifically Restrict 'Filling of Form Fields' on the PDF, and have the security model be a password.
Folders can't be directly encrypted in macOS, but you can put them in password-protected containers. This has the effect of protecting your folders and the files they contain with a password. You can password-protect folders on macOS using the built-in Disk Utility application or a third-party tool called Encrypt.
In Disk Utility, go to File > New Image > Image from Folder Now, select the folder you want to password protect. You can save this new folder as anything you want. And after that, click Save. Click the padlock icon and select Lock Note. Click Set Password.
