You can encript the file but not in SAP. The file will be placed on server in a folder and you can build a script to do the job.

No, not out of the box. You can use print workbench and send the invoice data in RDI(Raw Data Interface) format, but that is most that you can do. Your external print application/vendor should be able to accept RDI format. As far as encryption goes, you may have to use external tools and encrypt the file. If you are sending the data electronically (either as a xml document or in some other format), may be you can look at sending it via secure channels/protocols (like https). If you are using a file interface, and you have XI, may be there is some form of encryption available there. But again, your receiving application should be able to decrypt it which also means you and the print application/vendor should exchange digital certificates, encryption keys etc.
