    Hi Raja,
    If in case you want to lock the development done by you in SAP,then while the report is open in the ABAP edtor,click on GoTo and then Attributes at the menu bar and then check the checkbox "Editor Lock".
    Nobody will be able to make any changes to your program unless and until logged by your user ID.
    In case you have any further clarifications,do let me know.

  • How to mask a particular field depending on the user for a protected pdf?

    Hi,
    I have a requirement of showing a particular fiels data to only one user and to hide that critical data to others. For example, suppose I have two users viz, Primary user and Secondary user. I have a field named UID in my protected pdf form which has some critical data. I want only my Primary user enter and view the information entered in the UID field. When the Secondary user opens the document using his credentials, he should not be able to view the data in the UID field. It should be displayed in astrix as in a password field. Can anyone help me how to acheive this for a protected document?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Maria Johni

    It is possible. You should be having a field in your XSD schema for the username. Bind the username to a hidden field in your form.
    In the designer, in form initialize event,
    write the code: if hiddenfield.rawValue == "person A"
                                 subform1.presence = "hidden";
                           if hiddenfield.rawValue == "person B"
                                 subform2.presence = "hidden";
                                 subform1.presence = "visible"   }
    In your process, when your moving from one step to other step, update the uname accordingly and the form will respond according to the username.

  • How to split a password-protected PDF file?

    There is a tutorial to let you know how to split a password-protected pdf file, check in here:http://www.kvisoft.com/tutorials/split-a-password-protected-PDF-file.html

    Yup. You all are right. I ordered Adobe Acrobat today and the order is still processing. I can get to Adobe Acrobat.com but that too does not work. I guess I will have to wait until my order is processed before I get the keys to the kingdom. Thanks for your help and please forgive my ignorance.Regards,Bob

  • How to display in browser a password protected pdf file I created?

    I created a password protected pdf file.
    I want to display the file in browser so that viewers can only view it online.
    It is better that viewers cannot download it.
    But I donot know how to prevent viewers downloading the file.
    Since the pdf is password protected, viewers don't have the password even they download it.
    But how can I display the password protected pdf file in browser when I know the password?
    Or is there a better to just viewers see the pdf file online and prevent them from downloading and printing it?

    Any file on the web has to be copied to the local machine in order for the file content to be presented to the viewer. That's how the "www" is built.  So, to make use of your web based PDF the file has to be downloaded to the local machine. This might be to the local machine's temporary internet / browser cache or (via a 'save this to my computer') to some other location on the local machine's HDD. Bottom line -- web based files get downloaded this is the case for protected file or a non-protected file.
    Be well...

  • How to protect a pdf-file in a pdf-portfolio against extraction?

    How to protect a pdf-file in a pdf-portfolio against extraction?

    You can't.
    Portfolios are just a single-page document with a bunch of attached files - the act of opening one of those attachments is identical to the act of "extracting" it into a new document, so blocking it would stop the Portfolio from working.

    More details would be helpful. What security restrictions are there, exactly? Do you know the password? Do you want to copy all of the text in a document, or just some?

    There's nothing at all you can do to stop a PDF from being copied, emailed, put in a USB stick, uploaded to DropBox, or shared in any other way. DRM ($$$$) can make it so that unauthorized copies cannot be opened.

  • How I protect edition in some pages of my PDF, but accept modify one page in my PDF file?

    How I protect edition in some pages of my PDF, but accept modify one page in my PDF file?
    For example...
    I am author of a e-book. But, I want people distribute that my e-book inserting in first page your website of who is distributing.
    Look at how I want stay it...
    "You have downloaded this eBook by"
    Header 1Header 2
    "You have downloaded this eBook by"
    Name of distributor here.
    (only that page can be changed)
    Page 1
    Content my e-book
    Page 2 (BLOCKED FOR CHANGED)
    Content my e-book
    (BLOCKED FOR CHANGED)
    Page 3
    Content my e-book
    (BLOCKED FOR CHANGED)
    Page 4 
    ... ALL THE REST IS BLOCKED FOR EDIT.
    I want that, How can I get it?
    Please, apologize my bad english, I speak portuguse.

    Remember, most people don't have software for editing PDF files at all. They will not want to buy Acrobat just to edit your ebook.
    Otherwise, I think you need to learn about form fields. This allows you to decide where it is to be typed in. You can allow filling and request editing is not allowed.  You need to understand exactly what software can and can't fill in forms, and what can and can't save the result; it changes with versions of Adobe Reader.
    Remember too that some software ignores your security settings anyway.

  • How robust is PDF-Password protection? Does it also work for PDF/A?

    Several sources say that PDF passwords can be removed with appropriate software. Is this true?
    Can I also protect a PDF/A with a password? If not, how can I be sure that I can still open a regular password protected PDF in 10 years from now?
    Many thanks.

    Actually PDF/A is specifically designed to guarantee that the documents can be read in the distant future (barring global destruction, end of reality as we know it, alien sheep invasions, etc.)
    While we cannot predict which vendor will be providing the software to do it, or how the data will be stored by then (holographic data mice are still in beta) the PDF/A standard is designed to do two very important things:
    The standard is open, so the structure of a PDF/A file can be interpreted by anyone who can open it and compare the contents to the standard (which itself is also published in PDF/A). It's basically a text file with lots of symbols in it.
    PDF/A forbids any encryption or licensed algorithms (e.g. H.264) that could be impossible or illegal for a future viewer to use, for example if a password is lost or the inventor of a proprietary algorithm goes crazy and cancels all the licenses.
    Combined, these points make PDF/A impossible not to be parsable. It may end up projected directly into your brain by the aforementioned holographic data mouse, but you'll be reading it all the same.

    As to your ability to open a secured password in 20 years from now? Heck there is no guarantee that your non-secured pdf file will be readable in 20 years. With PDF/A your chances are pretty good as it uses standards based file format, but there is no guarentee that Adobe or any other company doing business today will be in business 20 years from now.

  • How can I open a protected PDF

    How do I open a protected PDF using the acrobat.com (share)?

    By "protected" I assume you mean password-protected.  Download the PDF to your local disk, then open it from there, entering the password when prompted.

  • How can I offer individual password protected pdfs on my site.

    I am building a site for a client of mine.  His business is a music talent agency.  He would like that on the page of the individual artist, there be a link to download a pdf that only that artist can download if he/she enters a correct password.  I think from reading other posts that I can simply offer a pdf download link and have that pdf password protected when I initially create the pdf itself in adobe acrobat.  Are there other ways of doing this or is that the best route to go?  All responses appreciated.

    Hi,
    For protecting PDFs, I am afraid you do need Acrobat, and here's how you accomplish applying password protection: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/acrobat-tips-and-tricks/protecting-your-pdf-using-a-password/
    With this approach, you may have to reassign unique passwords to PDFs and ensure right passwords are communicated to the right people (there is not sign-in option) - that may be a bit of challenge.
    Alternatively, with some basic scripting you could allow right people to download the right PDFs. This will need some mapping at the DB level.
    Or, you could also leverage social media and use the OAuth mechanism to ensure that the users log in via social sites to download PDFs that are unique to them. Look forward to your thoughts.
