Hi Everyone,

I would like to send some PDF-Documents to someone ouside of our Organisation. I would like them not to be changeable until a certain expiration date. After expiration I would like them to change automatically the secutrity setting to require a password to get opened. The goal is that the person has an expiration date and after that date he or she cannot open the file. Before that date he or she cannot change the data.

Does anybdy have any idea? Could it be done by Javascriping?

I would be very grateful.

Regards

Msanbari

You need a professional security solution for this such as Adobe’s AEM Rights Management or one of the various 3rd party solutions.

JavaScript is worthless from a security point of view, not least because it can be turned off in preferences (and in many companies is off by policy).
