How to protect against a pdf printing without protecting the file with a password ?

I want to know if it's possible to protect a PDF against printing without protecting the file with a password ?
It's possible to make it with Acrobat Reader or another version ?
Thank You
Best regards.

Hi,
Yes, you can restrict editing and printing of the document; although you have setup a permission password (To restrict the users from changing the document permissions).
Please follow the steps mentioned below:-
Open the file in Adobe Acrobat- Document properties- Security- Change security method to password security- Select Restrict editing and printing of the document

    What app are you using to view PDF files? Preview can be a poor choice for some PDF files - I recommend using Adobe Reader - http://get.adobe.com/reader/ - perhaps it will solve your printing problem.

  • How do I delete my iCloud email without deleting the files from the server?

    I want to delete my iCloud email from a laptop I don't use much anymore. I am afraid if I do all the files will delete from the server as well. Is this true? If not, what are the best ways to go about deleting the account without harming the files on the server (in turn deleting all my email from synced iCloud devices)?

    In Mail, delete the account, the server side will not be changed.

  • Print without opening the file (using two Adobe versions)

    I used this a lot but recently it's not working.  Right click on the file, hit Print from the drop down and the file magiclly prints. (this magic saves a lot of time)
    Now, when I right click and hit print I get a "Open With" dialog box, forcing me to open the file and then print.
    I have Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Pro and also Adobe Reader 9.1 installed.  I have reader because many websites require 8.0 or higher for pdf browser viewing.  I am guessing the problem is somewhere in the file type association but don't know how to fix it.
    It used to work for me but after some update it's not workinig no more
    Thanks for your help!!!

    If you have a postscript printer or rip which has the ability to create hot folders to link to the printer queues you could simply drag-n-drop and PDL (page description language) file like PDF, PS, EPS to that hot folder to initiate printing. Again, very dependent on your printer/rip device.

  • PDF print. where save the file?

    Hello,
    on my system (SPAD) is defined ZPDF2 a printer for printing in PDF.
    I want to know where to save the PDF? In a specific file system? How can I see this?
    Best regards

    Hi,
    It is not cleared what is your exact goal ?
    see that the printing is completed but I do not know if SAP has created a file and where to put it
    By default SAP saves the documents in users home directory "C:\Documents and Settings\<USER_NAME>\SapWorkDir".
    Is there a log that tells me what happens when I print a SAP page?
    in SP01/SP02 or SPAD you can see the status of the spool job (success or failed) or its attribute. But it will not tell you where you saved the file because this activity will not come under SAP's control.
    If I am not mistaking SAP generates spool request as per the configured spool device in SPAD. Once you fire the print job it depends on operating system's installed printer (configuration) what to do with that request. Means whether to print as PDF document or send to normal print device.
    If you want more control over print job, you can configure "Access Method" as "G: Frontend printer with Control tech." and set "Host Printer = _DEFAULT". So it will pop-up Operating system printer selection dialog box.
    I hope, it will cleare your doubts.
    One more thing:
    You have 2 methods to get it done...
    A) In case of standard transactions or report, use method as I said in previous post.
    B) If it is custom development, you can take ABAPers help to do the same. below are the steps for the same.
    Basic Steps .
    1) Generate the classical Report output .
    2) Create a Spool Request .
    3) Search  the Spool Request .
    4) Submit the Spool Request  for Pdf  Creation .
    5) Download the Pdf Output in Presentation server  or Application Server .
    Use the Standard Function Modules 'CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF' and 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
    It will give you a freedom where to save the file..

  • See PDF attachments without saving the file

    Until a couple of weeks ago, I click on the attachment and the Adobe program will open the file and after that I decided if want to save the file.
    Now, when I click on the attachment, I get the "Save file" screen.
    then I have to open Adobe and go to where the file was saved to see the attachment.
    How can I see an attachment without saving it?

  • How do I print to a postscript file with InDesign CS6 without both extensions, .indd.ps?

    How do I print to a postscript file without an .indd extension in InDesign CS6? I choose Print, choose a print preset from my print shop and Save. The first time I tried it was blank (the Hide Extension was checked), so I tried to save and got a dialog box that said it cannot be saved as an .indd file (duh), to choose both or .ps. I chose .ps and it was fine, but every time I postscripted it gave me this dialog box until I unchecked Hide Extension. After I did that, every time I postscript it automatically saves both extensions. Not a big deal but it is annoying. I just want it to end with .ps like it used to. Any ideas on how to fix this?
    Thanks!!

    I have no idea but I am incredibly curious...why are you doing this?
    Printing to postscript is a completely archaic workflow. Export to PDF
    instead.

  • 3D PDF files in portfolio prints to Adobe PDF printer without content

    3D PDF files in portfolio prints to Adobe PDF printer without content, but if printed from single 3D PDF file everything is fine. I need batch printing (this is the reason I use portfolio) of large amount of 3DPDF files because of the need to have proper preview of these files in browsers. Any ideas or workarounds how to have preview pdf's or jpg's of the single paged 3D PDF files, keeping relevant file names?

    I suspected as much.  I was hopeful it was something like a setting that needed to be changed or a reg hack that needed a bit changed from 0 to 1 to make the printing work as expected.  I only installed the local printer to see if the RDP session
    tunnel was in fact causing the print size to balloon so I will continue to instruct users to use that instead of the local redirected printer.  I am disappointed but not surprised.
    Edit:
    Additionally I have tested the functionality of setting the GPO settings for Easy Print to use the redirected printer's drivers instead of the ones used by easy print, by setting “Computer
    Configuration -> Administrative templates -Windows Components -> Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Session Host -> Printer Redirection”.
    to “Disabled” but
    with no luck.  In fact the printer received the proper Adobe PDF driver, but the job went out into print spool hell and was lost to the ether.  I have concluded that this approach will not bear any fruit.

  • How can I set 'Adobe PDF printer' as one of my printer choices?

    I've given it half an hour. Can't seem to figure out how I can set 'Adobe PDF printer' as one of my printer options. I'm not sure if I need to download an Adobe file, and what folder I might need to place it in, and if I also need to add a specific driver.
    I'm trying to create a PDF file that printers and outfits like www.lulu.com will accept. Printing an MS Word document via 'Adobe PDF printer' will allow me, I'm told, to produce a suitable PDF file.
    Ideally I'm producing the original document in Pages - but I've been told by printers and lulu.com et. al. that no one out there likes PDF's produced by Pages ("not professional").
    Any suggestions you might have would be most appreciated...

    I downloaded the Lulu Adobe PDF joboptions file ... but it didn't come with any instructions on how to install or use it. I just have the file. I opened it with a double click and got Adobe Distiller - and I can 'see' what the settings are, but I'd love to understand how to install it so it becomes a selection when I export from Pages.
    Forget the Lulu instruction about double click to install. Quit Acobat Distiller and Acrobat Pro. Move the Lulu joboptions file to the Adobe PDF Settings folder. The path to it is:
    HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe PDF/Settings/
    or
    HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings/
    You're in the right folder when you see other joboptions files already in the Settings folder.
    Next, launch Pages and open your document.
    From the File menu, select Page Setup. In that window, select Adobe PDF 7 for "Format for," choose your paper size, orientation and scale % and click OK.
    From the File menu, select Print
    In the Print window, be sure the Printer is Adobe PDF 7
    Click on Layout for a pop down list and select PDF Options
    To the right of "Adobe PDF Settings" click for a pop up list and select Lulu
    Click Print

  • Printing pdf files in a browser (e.g. Firefox) without opening the file

    I have a web application, which is generating pdf files. Is it possible to print a pdf file on the default printer without opening the pdf file?
    I want to click on the link of a pdf file and the file should be printed immediately on the default printer.

    I do not think this is a feature of the browser. In Firefox I can set that a PDF file is opened using a PDF viewer. At this point I would specify the Adobe reader. Instead of opening the PDF file this file should be printed immediately.
    So my question is: Is it possible to configure the Adobe reader that the PDF file is printed immediately?
