How do I make a PDF read only in Pro 9 extended

Hello,
I created a document in Adobe presenter and published a PDF file. I'm using the file in a LearninIg Management System where students can take courses online. I want the student to be able to open the PDF in the browser without the save or print option. I don't want to add any passwords or any other security features. Thankd

> Could you tell me how to get to the document security section to control printing and saving?
You cannot control saving at all.
To control printing, use File > Properties and look under the Security
tab. Read and note the warning message you get when setting security.
> I don't want to make it that easy to save
You can't make it any less easy.

How can I make Keynote files read-only (eg: to share with students)?

I would like to share some keynote files with students, and I would like to set them up as read-only, so that the students can tap the screen, read my presentation, but not alter it. I've tried to set the files up as read-only on my iMac desktop, but when I load the file onto my iPad, it's still editable.
Any ideas re: how to make Keynote files read-only?
I've tried to export the files as PDF and load them into iBook, but some of Keynote's basic "build" functions won't work this way. Specifically, I have files set up with questions and answers (ie - a question appears, and you have to tap the screen to see the answer, but this "build" function seems to disappear when I get it to show up in iBook).
Any ideas how to make Keynote files read-only? I am happy to use another program, but I want the students to tap the screen in order to see the answer to a question.
Thanks!

as long as $PATH is set, you shouldn't need to reconnect them (i think). if you send the list of apps through | awk -F '/' '{print $NF}' | that'll strip the path
/edit: added the "(i think)" part

How do I make a form READ ONLY??

I am using acrobat to create mutliple contracts that my company uses...we use the same format but change out dates and client information. We use the same document over and over but change the information in the fields, so I have been using the form tools to edit the different sections of the contract. I want to be able to edit the form within my own office and between employees but WE DONT WANT THE FINAL DRAFT to be editable. Is there a way a "LOCK" the form fields or preferably save a copy of a form as a "READ ONLY" document????
Basically I am asking if anyone knows how to save a pdf form as a read only pdf???
ANY ADVICE WOULD BE AWESOME!?!!

With the preflight tool of Acrobat Pro you can flatten the form fields.

Hi
Please make the database in READ ONLY MODE. This will help. If it is an oracle database then.
Open a Database in Read-Only Mode
You can open any database in read-only mode to prevent its data from being modified by user transactions. Read-only mode restricts database access to read-only transactions, which cannot write to the datafiles or to the redo log files.
Disk writes to other files, such as control files, operating system audit trails, trace files, and alert files, can continue in read-only mode. Temporary tablespaces for sort operations are not affected by the database being open in read-only mode. However, you cannot take permanent tablespaces offline while a database is open in read-only mode. Also, job queues are not available in read-only mode.
Read-only mode does not restrict database recovery or operations that change the database's state without generating redo data. For example, in read-only mode:
Datafiles can be taken offline and online
Offline datafiles and tablespaces can be recovered
The control file remains available for updates about the state of the database
One useful application of read-only mode is that standby databases can function as temporary reporting databases
Opening a Database in Read-Only Mode
Opening a database in read-only mode enables you to query an open database while eliminating any potential for online data content changes. While opening a database in read-only mode guarantees that datafile and redo log files are not written to, it does not restrict database recovery or operations that change the state of the database without generating redo. For example, you can take datafiles offline or bring them online since these operations do not effect data content.
If a query against a database in read-only mode uses temporary tablespace, for example to do disk sorts, then the issuer of the query must have a locally managed tablespace assigned as the default temporary tablespace. Otherwise, the query will fail. This is explained in "Creating a Locally Managed Temporary Tablespace".
Ideally, you open a database in read-only mode when you alternate a standby database between read-only and recovery mode. Be aware that these are mutually exclusive modes.
The following statement opens a database in read-only mode:
ALTER DATABASE OPEN READ ONLY;
You can also open a database in read-write mode as follows:
ALTER DATABASE OPEN READ WRITE;
However, read-write is the default mode.
Regards

Acrobat 8--Making a pdf Read-Only

My little pamphlet included with acrobat says I can make a pdf read-only. It never says another word about that. I tried security with passwords. What I got was some a document that wanted me to enter the password(s) each time I tried to access it. That's not what I wanted. There are hundreds of pdfs floating around on the web who seem to be read-only. I want to allow people to save, print and view it, but not modify it. How does one do that?

OK, I finally figured out how to remove password/permission (change), and then get just a change permissions password. I'm using the pop-up menu Documents Properties dialog to do this. When I look at the summary, it shows Changing the doc allowed, Commenting allowed, ..., Content copy allowed. However, when I go to Change Settings (via button), the story is different. The Changes Allowed pulldown selection shows None. If I pull it down, I see no way to make individual choices shown on the summary. Ah, got it. Good enough. Thanks.

Making a pdf "read only"

Hello
I created a document (459 pages !!! ) in Microsoft Word and then converted it to Adobe Acrobat Professional. It is stored on a drive which is shared by a "bunch" of users. This was not a problem, before, because none of the folks who utilized the document had anything except ADOBE Reader.   Now, because of new functions they have to perform, more and more of the staff are getting Professional.
All of that said, I need to secure the document so that it is a "read only" document for everyone except me, whether it is opened in Reader or Pro.
I have tried using the help functions but I'm just not getting it   and need a little hand holding.
Can someone please walk me thru the steps of what I need to do. ( Pretend I'm a total computer moron )
Thank you.

You can configure the document's Security Settings to make the PDF read only.
1. Click Document > Security > Show Security Settings for this Document.
2. Select Security Method as Password Security.
3. At the Password Security Settings dialog, check the Permissions box and assign a Permissions password known only to you (users can open the document without knowing this password)
     a. Define a setting for printing of the document as needed
     b. Define the setting for changing the document (None=read only; other restrictions are possible—experiment!)
     c. Enable copying of the document if needed
4. Click OK to save these settings.
5. Retype the Permissions password in Step 3.
6. You must save the document to preserve these settings.

How can I make a pdf book with "camera to pdf" option on phone? I can only convert one pic at a time

How can I make a pdf book (single pdf file with several pages) with "camera to pdf" option on phone? I can only convert one pic at a time. ( Or )how can I attach all those pictures converted pdf's into one pdf file which obviously results in to a single pdf file with several pages in it ?

Adobe Reader on the iPhone is a PDF reading app. It's not a creation app.
You need to get an app like Pages which is intended for page layout. It can place pictures from the phone and export PDF.

How to make a PDF viewable only through an URL or a link?

Hi
I'm a newbie to Adobe Lifecycle ES. My ultimate aim to use this suite is to make my pdf viewable only through an URL or a weblink. The system must not allow the user to view the PDF without the particular URL. Is it possible to acheive this through Adobe Lifecycle ES? Please do reply as i'm in an urgency to finish my task.
Thakns in advance

If you are trying to control access to the actual URL where the Rights Managed PDF you would need to set up a way to authenticate users to allow them access ot the URL. This would be done on the web\app server, not using Rights Management ES.
You would use Rights Management ES to apply a policy to the PDF itself. A policy controls who can view (open) the document, and once the user authenticates to the RM server to open the document, RM controls the permissions that that user has for the document (i.e. can the PDF be printed, can content be copied etc...) RM cannot be used to control who can download a PDF form a URL. Policies can also control if the user must be online and connected to the RM server to open the PDF, or you can allow "Offline" access for a set period of time where the user does not need a connection to view the PDF, however the user still needs to be authenticated to view the document offline.

I have just switched to samsung and i have removed the sim from the iphone however i am still receiving texts rather 'imessage' on the old iphone. how do i make sure all messages only come to my new phone??

i have just switched to samsung and i have removed the sim from the iphone however i am still receiving texts rather 'imessage' on the old iphone. how do i make sure all messages only come to my new phone??

You can turn iMessage off on your iPhone. That's relatively easy. Since iMessage is an Apple product/service, I have no idea how a Samsung phone will deal with an incoming one. For that answer you should probably contact Samsung support.

1) Make the column read only without coding

Please guid eme how to make the column read only in the list without using the coding.
Vij

Basically, the answer is that you can't. There are ways to change a specific list view to make a column readonly by replacing the form with a custom DataView form. But that only applies to that view and since users can create their own views,
those views would have read/write access to the column if the user has read/write access to the item. SharePoint only supports security down to the item level out of the box and not down to the individual column level.

How can I make a PDF file from each folders with layers, where each page is a each folder?

How can I make a PDF file from each folders with layers, where each page is a each folder?

I found an answer to my own question. A work around of sorts.
Download Photoshop Elements 6 for Macintosh. With PSE6 I made a slide show with 550 images 1920x1200, without thumbs. I ran into one problem making the slide show. My images contained 4 images which had not ben created by Photoshop and could not be included in the slide show. Opening the images in Photoshop CS4 and re-saving them still did not make then acceptable. Not a big deal. I probably could have fixed the four images by stripping all EXIF data before opening them in Photoshop. BTW, PSE6 made the slide show in demo mode.
I hope the bug in Photoshop CS4 will be fixed in Photoshop CS5.
