High (more secure, but can’t be opened with oldest readers)So, if you are looking for very secure file, then I would suggest you to go with the High encryption strenght option. However, as the site suggests, this file might not be compatible with old PDF viewers. So you will need any of the new PDF readers to open and read this file. On the other hand, if you are looking for more compatibility you should select the Low encryption strength.
Low (compatible with older readers)
