pdf security - disable exporting

New Here ,
Dec 06, 2018 Dec 06, 2018

Exporting to Word etc. for a password-protected pdf remains possible. I don't find an option to disable exporting in the security settings. What do I have to do?

Thanks.

It's covered by text copying. But it's pretty useless, most software ignores it.

So password protection for text copying is in fact useless, because everybody can export the pdf to Word etc. and do whatever he wants? Bad news, but thanks for your answer.

Well, not with Adobe applications, but with other ones, yes, unfortunately.
