Hello OpenOffice,
I am wondering how you can waterproof a document on OpenOffice. I am a
writer and I am trying to send a copy of my book to people who are giving
me feedback. I don't want others to edit my book while they are viewing it.
What is the best way to send people a copy of my book, and they can only
view it?

I would not dismiss the option to create images and from that creating a pdf, which is not editable. There is open source software which can do that quite easily, I think e.g. of gscan2pdf. You need a scanner, preferably with an ADF, then you can put the printed paper into the scanner and gscan2pdf scans all pages for you and creates the pdf when saving. You can disable the OCR option, but that wouldn't make it editable anyway. If OCR is on, the document becomes searchable, which may be helpful.
