In this video, David explains how to password protect a PDF file for free without using docHub. The free version of docHub does not allow setting passwords for PDF files. To achieve password protection, he suggests using LibreOffice, a free software suite similar to Microsoft Office. This process will ensure only authorized individuals with the password can access the protected PDF file. Remember to like and share the video for more valuable content.
