If you want to protect the fixed content of a Word document, allowing others to only modify content in designated areas, you can set editing permissions by adding a restrict editing password to the Word document. For example, add a restrict editing password in Word and set it to allow only filling in forms; this way, users can only fill in the form sections and cannot edit other content. Below, we will teach you the specific operation method.

Steps to Batch Add Restrict Editing Password to Word
1. Open HeSoft Doc Batch Tool , select Word Tools → Word Add Password Protection.
2. Click Add File or Import Files from Folder to import the Word documents that need passwords added.
3. Select Restrict Editing Password → Filling in forms only, and enter the desired password in the text box below.
4. After processing is complete, click Save Location to view; all Word documents have been set with a restrict editing password.
With this method, you can not only add a restrict editing password to Word documents, but also perform batch operations, adding passwords to tens of thousands of Word documents at once. The main function of this password is to prevent the document from being arbitrarily modified, only allowing users to edit the content in forms, which is suitable for various scenarios such as teaching, office work, and surveys.
Usage Scenarios Where Word Only Allows Filling in Content at Specified Locations
1. Teachers distribute electronic assignments or exams to students, allowing students to only fill in answers at designated locations and not change the questions. For instance, answers can only be written in the parentheses of multiple-choice questions, and subjective answers can only be filled in the blank area below the questions.
2. When signing electronic contracts, to ensure the contract content is not tampered with, users are only allowed to fill in designated locations such as signatures and dates.
3. When companies collect data from employees or clients, only the required data can be filled in without altering the document template.
4. When creating surveys, registration forms, and application forms, to prevent other parts of the form from being modified, users are only allowed to fill in designated locations, such as blank sections in tables, multiple-choice questions in surveys, and specified response areas for open-ended questions.
