pdf without save as option

Hi Gamah,

What you are looking for, is partially possible. But that is something is not you are looking here. You can make a PDF read-only, disabling ‘Save’ and ‘Save As’ options in an application are just one of many methods you can use to prevent document copying and sharing. And disabling Save or Save As in an application is practically not possible to do.

Note: When a document is opened by an application (be that Word, Acrobat, or a browser) a temporary file is created and saved to disk.  Any changes made are then applied to the temporary file which may either be saved as a new document or overwrite the existing document.

So, to prevent Save and prevent Save As from taking place there is a need to build a special application that does not have these capabilities rather than trying to relying on third-party add-ons to try and control the environment.

Hope this answers your query.

Thanks,

Akanchha

This is not possible.
