Is there a way to save my tax return to a password protected PDF file?

You can save your file as a PDF with this guide: https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3333012

Password protecting is possible with the Adobe Acrobat software (and others...including free Zip compression programs).

Not happy that I have to buy Acrobat to password protect my PDF tax file. I can password protect my tax data file, but I can't password protect my PDF file. That doesn't make sense.

Acrobat was an example.  There are also free programs, including zip programs that can password protect.
