Pdf documents that can not be printed nor copied

I do sell some documents through the net, and I do not want to be printed, even saved on a drive.
Please, is there any way to do it?

Impossible to stop people saving copies; PDF files don't stream.
You can prevent printing using PDF encryption but only a DRM-based solution is crack-proof, and even then users can always take screenshots.

In adobe reader app on iPad, I have a PDF document that added notes and comments to. Once I left the document and returned to it, the notes and comments were gone. Where are they? I clicked "save" and "done" buttons after I entered text.

The application auto-saves your input when you close the document. If you left the document, as you state, the notes/comments should have been saved and should have been visible the next time you opened the document with the Mobile Reader (note that if you are opening the document with another app such as Apple's built in PDF Viewer, things like notes/comments may not be visible). Also note that if you are doing an Open In... from another app (like Dropbox), the version of the document in Dropbox does not update; only the version of the document in the Mobile Reader is updated.
Would it be possible to send a video of the problem you are encountering to [email protected] so that we can try to help?

How can I send a file that CAN NOT be printed or saved by the recipient?

How can I send a file that CAN NOT be printed or saved by the recipient?

Impossible. PDF files don't stream, so they cannot be opened until they've been saved.
You can truly prevent printing by using DRM, or ask nicely by using a permissions password (though that's ignored by non-Adobe software).

Can I create a PDF document that can be commented on by others using READER

I have dozens (hundreds?) of PDF Books that I've purchased. Whoever created them made them so anyone using Adobe Reader 5 or better can make highlights and comments on the text. I use the feature to correct typos and send them back to the publisher. I know it can be done because I've been doing it for a few years before I ever got Adobe Standard.
So . . . My question is . . . How can I create documents like this that can be commented on using Adobe Reader? I have Adobe Standard 8 and I don't see this as a separate feature of Adobe Pro. and I'm hoping that I'm just missing the instructions on how it's done. I do not have any problem doing what I want using Adobe Standard 8 but I need to be able to make it doable in Reader so others can make comments in my documents.
Thanks for taking the time . . .

"Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader" or "Extend Features in Adobe Reader"
are available with Acrobat 8 Professional / 3D version 8 or Acrobat Professional / Pro Extended respectively.
Additionally, Adobe provides a server based service (LiveCycle ES) that "enables/extends" a PDF such that Adobe Reader can be used for Comment, Review, Digital Signature, etc.
That you can use Adobe Reader to comment on PDFs means one of the above applications were used.
Because you have mentioned the PDFs are purchased PDF Books I suspect that LiveCycle ES was used.
This server based application (which has a myriad of "modules" available) is expensive so, typically, it is licensed by enterprises that need its functionality. Examples: the large publishing houses or governmental agencies (e.g., IRS).
If you move up to Acrobat Professional you will be able to "Extend Features in Adobe Reader" such that others can perform Comment & Review on your PDF documents.
As Acrobat 9.x is the current, marketed release the Professional version would be available to you via an upgrade (not to be confused with the free "updates").
Be well...

I bought 2 songs that can not be played or copied

Yesterday I bought 2 songs but one can not be played at all and the other you can listen just a few seconds. You can not even play them in itunes. I've previously buy other songs that don't have any problems. When you see the files they seem complete because they are more than 2 minutes long as the songs.
If I download them again do I have to pay another time? I don´t have any error messages...

This script will relink dead tracks if they are still n the iTunes folder.

"This script attempts to locate the files of so-called "dead tracks"--iTunes tracks designated with (!)--that you assume are not actually missing but are still located in the iTunes Music folder in their "iTunes File Order" (Music -> Artist -> Album -> file.xxx).

The maximum number of PDF documents that can be simultaneous openned in the browser has been exceede

I'm currently build a WinForms application that uses the built-in webbrowser to view PDF files. However, I just started getting this message. I saw someone's post but in was in the archive section and looks like it was never resolved. So I'm asking for Adobe's help if they're on here to put up a FAQ somewhere describing this error.
I'm currently on Reader 8.1.2.

First, no one is addressing Adobe here. This is a User 2 User forum. I'm
not sure this is really a Reader issue as opposed to a Microsoft issue.
Microsoft applications have a habbit of holding onto documents until the
application is closed. Since you are most likely using MSIE, it is
probably still holding onto the document via the reader plug-in until it
quits.
However, if you wish to log it as a Reader bug, here is the appropriate

Fixing Exported PDF documents that do not display drop shadows

Now, what is the solution to this problem?:
iWork Pages: The drop shadows in Pages and Keynote are generated by a component of Mac OS X. When you view iWork-generated PDF files in Preview, you'll see these shadows. However, if you view the PDF with a third-party reader that doesn't use this component, the shadows will be missing.

Hi sgfoto,
This is not the exact solution but just a trick.
Try this:
1. How about open your file and Export into images i.e *.png, or *.tif.
2. Save into one folder.
3. Create New file.
4. Paste all of the image, clue: one image for one page.
5. Then Export as a *.pdf file.
Hope this may help and give you an idea.

What app can I use to upload pdf documents that cane read in ibooks?

Previously, with MobileMe, I have uploaded pdf files to iDisk and then opened them in iBooks on my iPad2. Worked great. Moving to iCloud, I can no longer upload to iDisk and must use (?) Pages, which will not open a pdf or allow me to move it to iBooks. What am I doing wrong? I need to open a pdf created on my iMAC in iBooks on my iPad2. What is the best way to get it there?
Thanks -

Drag the file to iTunes on your computer. Sync.

The scan's to PDF file can not be printed

Hello,
Im have an Mac running on Mac Os X 10.7.3
I bought a HP officejet PRO 8500 A910.
The printer is installed and works fine if a want to print a document or a picture. The scanner also works.
BUT there is a problem.
When I scan a document in my HP scanner to a PDF file. This PDF file can not be printed. When I send it to other people's computer, the can also read it on screen, but not print.
The printer gives an error : Unable to covert PostScript file. (see screenshot).
Can anyone help me? I want to scan usable PDF documents that can be printed by anyone.
Thank you.
Erik
This question was solved.
View Solution.

The solution given was to convert to image. Then it is no longer a PDF! The printer worked fine until I upgraded to 10.9. Did the change in drivers eliminate the PPD? I can print PDF's from Preview just fine. Will HP be updating the driver to include the proper PPD? As an aid to troubleshooting, what files should be present in the Library for correct PDF printing? This is happening on both my 8500 and 8610.
Thanks

Can I create pdfs that can not be copied?

I want to create pdf's that can not be copied by the viewer. Is this possible? Thank you in advance. Linda

No, it isn't.

I need to able to print a pdf that is locked. It has fields to fill in but then to save a copy I need to "print" to PDF not save as a pdf because that is not an option with the document. Is there a way to do this?

The PDF has fields to fill in but then to save a copy I need to "print" to PDF not save as a pdf because that is not an option with the document. Is there a way to do this? HELP!

Sorry I thought was just a one off, it would be no use for large volumes.
Do you not have this avaiable in the print menu in Preview with these documents?
I have also found a link on the Adobe web site that discusses that this facilty is enabled by the creater of the PDF.

If you do a web search there are various claims on how to save a protected PDF, I have'nt a way to test the proceedures. I would want a copy of any forms that I sent off, not sure why they protect them in this way, there must be a reason.

I am having trouble printing a PDF document. Whenever I click print nothing happens but when I am printing documents from Word, Excel etc they print without a problem. I've tried printing as image but that did not work. I uninstalled Adobe Reader XI and downloaded Adobe Reader X instead and that still doesn't work. I have Windows 7.

Adobe Reader XI Pro does not recognize Samsung Multifunction Xpress M2875FD. I can not edit the PDF documents that I scan it. What do I do?

We need to find out what you actually have here. There is no Adobe Reader Pro. There is Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Pro.
With Acrobat Pro, you may be able to do some editing after running OCR. With Adobe Reader, you cannot edit.
Which one do you have?
