That's not really a great answer from an M.S. Word expert now is it Graham?

To get round this simply open your Protected document fill it in, then go to
file then print, your default printer will be displayed, choose adobe pdf as
your printer and press print. Save the PDF to your required location.

What are you trying to achieve with the password protection of the
signature? If you think this will prevent someone else from using that
signature in a document, you are dreaming. *ANY* document that you allow
someone to see (and that would include the PDF) can be copied and the
signature used. This is one of the 'benefits' of improving technology.

We need to password protect documents where officer sig is added.
Managers then open, save as, and fill-in rest of form. They are
unable to save as PDF since password protection of sig has been added.
