Hello,
I'm looking for ways to do the following:

1) Password protect a PDF generated in ServiceNow.

2) Mask a few fields in the PDF.

Please let me know if there's a way to do this.

Any help is appreciated.

Regards,

Ram

Hello,

Thank you for your prompt reply.

While I do know that it is possible to mask fields on a form, I was looking at masking fields on a PDF that is generated in SNOW.

what is your objective behind masking 

There's some sensitive data that can be controlled by role based access on a form (ACLs), but when a PDF is generated and distributed, the fields should be masked so that not everyone is able to view it.
