Re: [PDF-Basics] PDF Documents - Security Features

[Steven M. Harris]

"Secure E-Book Viewer"  (www.acrobotics.net) has security features which include blocking screen capture of a PDF document.   Steve Harris ----- Original Message ----- From: Gary Gunrud To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2004 8:28 AM Subject: [PDF-Basics] PDF Documents - Security Features When you create a PDF document with Adobe Acrobat and add security features to the document to prevent others from saving, copying, or printing the document, these security features can be simply defeated by doing a screen capture with Windows.  Once the screen capture has been made, the image can be saved, printed, copied, or forwarded to others.  Is there any way to overcome this security weakness with PDF documents that you want to be more secure?  I understand I can password protect the document, but once it has been opened by an authorized user they can defeat the security features I have applied by using the Windows screen capture approach.
