Question

Annotating a DRM protected document

I'm a professional engineer frequently using DRM protected document of industry codes for suppliers like TechStreet.  I can freely annotate the documents in Acrobat for Windows.  However, I cannot annotate the document from my iPAD using the Acrobat app.  Why is that so and how can this be resolved to allow me to be productive in my work.

 

In Acrobat for Windows, under File / Properties / Security tab, the Security Method states : FileOpenPlugin

    On the iPad use unprotected files.

    I understand that unprotected files would work. This is not an option for me as the files I use are all DRM. Would like to hear from Adobe when / if they are planning to resolve this on iPAD

    Hi @Marc312033037p8t,

     

    Hope you are doing well. Thank you for writing in!

     

    Protected files or files that have any restrictions are not editable with the mobile version of Acrobat Reader.

     

    We are constantly evolving and would like to know more about it. Would you mind filling out the form: https://acrobat.uservoice.com/

     

    This ensures that your feedback reaches the product team directly for their review and implementation in future updates.
