If I save a file in PDF format and send it to someone as a n attachment, will
they be able to modify it if they have adobe software. If so how do I make it
so they can't change the original document
thanks

One way to prevent editing is to print out the document and re-scan it
as a PDF.

You cannot do anything to prevent someone who is determined enough from
creating a modified version of your document. All that you can do is to
make it more difficult.
