Disabling Editing in adobe acrobat
I have an application in which we generate the report in PDF , we do not want the user to edit the PDF documnt . can we diable editing in adobe thrpugh some code in the application.
Acrobat itself has a security option but if you are generating the document via a different method you may not be able to set it properly.

HOW do you generate the PDF? Dynamically or via the Adobe Distiller?

You need to find that out. It may be you can change the settings in the script used to generate the PDF to enable the security but more likely this is not possible short of manually opening the file in Acrobat and enabling security there.
