How to have a copyright notice pop-up every time a PDF is opened?

Looking to protect PDFs - is there a way to have a copyright notice pop-up every time a PDF is opened?

Hi aaronz94000410,

Could you please elaborate what exactly you are trying to do.

Do you want to get a pop-up on your end when someone else opens the protected PDF?

Regards,

I want a pop-up to show up on the user's end (not me) that displays a copyright notice.

Sorry to say that there is no such option provided in Adobe Acrobat.

However, you may look into this: Securing PDFs with Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management ES. Check if it helps.

Also refer this thread: how to use adobe livecycle rights management?

Let us know if you have any queries.

It can certainly be done in Acrobat. It's possible to embed a script that displays a message when the file is opened, if JavaScript is supported and enabled in the application used to open the file, of course.
