Hi guys,

Basically I have a folder full of PDFs. I want to let other people open the PDFs but prevent them from copying them to somewhere else or on there system. (confidential company files - data protection)

I know that if you disable the read-only feature, they won't be able to view the PDF.

Any help on how to solve this problem?

Thanks & Regards,
blivori

It is impossible. Even if you try your best to prevent copying, someone could just take a picture of the screen with a camera.

Not going to happen, realistically.
Not unless you fancy writing your own operating system, omitting Copy & Paste, Print Screen, a decent explorer or sacking anybody with a mobile phone with a camera in it...
