That&#8217;s mostly because I&#8217;ve run out of ideas.  Good news is that I finally submitted a new software title to <strong>Mac App Store<\/strong> some 12 hours ago.  This new Mac application is called <strong>PDFLockAll<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>PDFLockAll is a desktop application that lets you password-protect (or unprotect) multiple PDF documents at a time.\u00c2\u00a0 Imagine that you have a few dozen PDF documents to password-protect.\u00c2\u00a0 Would you protect those documents one by one or use PDFLockAll to protect them all at a time?\u00c2\u00a0 PDFLockAll works in a way such that the same password will be used to protect multiple PDF documents.\u00c2\u00a0 You don&#8217;t have to worry about original PDF files being overwritten.\u00c2\u00a0 Since PDFLockAll will create new password-protected PDF files after you select an export path, original files will remain intact.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you use <strong>Preview<\/strong> or <strong>Adobe Reader<\/strong> to open a password-protected PDF document that has been created with this application, you won&#8217;t get to view the content until you enter the right password.  Is it still protected on a PC?  The answer is yes.  If you try to view a locked document that you&#8217;ve created with this application on a PC, the content is still password-protected. &nbsp; <!--more--><br \/>\n<br \/><\/br><br \/>\n<br \/><\/br><\/p>\n<table width=\"450\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tr>\n<td width=\"220\" valign=\"top\"><a href=\"mac\/mac_shareware\/pdflockall\/01_intro.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"mac\/mac_shareware\/pdflockall\/thumbnail_01_intro.jpg\" width=\"220\" height=\"140\" alt=\"Mac software PDFLockAll\"\/><\/a><\/a><\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td width=\"220\" valign=\"top\"><a href=\"mac\/mac_shareware\/pdflockall\/04_pc1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"mac\/mac_shareware\/pdflockall\/thumbnail_04_pc1.jpg\" width=\"220\" height=\"140\" alt=\"Mac software PDFLockAll\"\/><\/a><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p><\/br><br \/>\n<br \/><\/br><\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<table width=\"422\" border=\"0\" align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" bordercolor=\"#FFFFFF\">\n<tr>\n<td>\n<table width=\"420\" border=\"0\" align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tr>\n<td>Available at Mac App Store<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<table width=\"420\" border=\"0\" align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" bgcolor=\"#FFFFFF\">\n<tr>\n<td width=\"160\" valign=\"middle\">\n<div align=\"center\"><a href=\"macappstore:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/app\/id972403464\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"mac\/mac_shareware\/available-on-mac-app-store.jpg\" alt=\"Mac App Store\" width=\"160\" height=\"48\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/br><br \/>\n<br \/><\/br><br \/>\n<u>Features<\/u><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Password-protect multiple PDF documents with the same password at a time.<\/li>\n<li>Unlock multiple PDF documents that are already password-locked at a time.<\/li>\n<li>Use a drop box to select and open PDF files that are readily accessible.<\/li>\n<li>The application supports the retina screen.
