In this video tutorial, the presenter demonstrates how to use VBA to encrypt PDF files using a command-line tool created with Python. The process involves downloading the encrypt PDF.exe file and creating a macro in Excel. The macro is used to encrypt multiple PDF files with passwords, by specifying file paths and passwords in an Excel spreadsheet. Before running the macro, it is advised to make backups of the PDF files. The VBA window is accessed through the Developer tab in Excel, where a new module is inserted to create the macro. Variables are declared, and the macro is named 'encrypt_pdfs'. The presenter walks through the steps to reference the worksheet and loop through the rows to encrypt the PDF files.
