Once you've imported a document, its pages will be displayed in a list, on the left side of the window, and the contents of selected pages can be viewed in the larger area on the right.

Selected pages can be locked and unlocked or hidden, by simply clicking one of the buttons beneath the page list. When you select one of these options, an icon will appear on the affected pages, so you will know which ones are protected or not. All that is left to do at this point is to save the file. The application lets you overwrite the original file right away or save the loaded document as a new file. Additionally, you can specify a password, to prevent others from removing your protection measures.
