I want password protect my pdf file in a way so that other users can open and achieve high quality printing WITHOUT password, but need password to extract/edit the file.

Hello,

yes, this works with Protect PDF:

1. Add your PDF and leave Password to open the PDF empty.
2. Click the cog icon (Additional options) and enter a password in Owner password.
3. Uncheck what should need this password, e.g. Modification of content, Copying of contents, Commenting and Assemble document. Leave Printing and High quality printing checked.

The PDF then opens and prints without a password; the owner password is needed to change the permissions. Like all PDF permissions, they are applied by the PDF program that opens the file.

The tool Protect PDF in PDF24 Creator (Toolbox) has the same fields.
