Adobe Lockdown

[ASPOPS]

Hi all,

we are in the porcess of deploying Software As a Service SaaS using Microsoft Remote Desktop Service. customers will be accessing some help files that require adobe, which we have installedo n the RDS server. since we do not allow users to access the internet all, we seem to need to have adobe make all hyper links not clickable or make them like all text in the document so that users don't click on it.

so far I am not able to find an article that could help lock adobe down completely and not allow users to access the preferences or anythign else other then read, printing, saving as, zooning in and out.

is there some registry settings that we can utilize to accomplish this goal?

any help or hints are much appreciated.

"Adobe" is not a product. Acrobat and Reader are. Assuming you want to allow users to view PDFs with one or the other while turning most features off, then you should get the App Security Guide: http://www.adobe.com/go/acrobatitinfo.

For all available preferences, see the Preference Reference in AIM.

Turn off web access via Trust Manager > Interent Options.

Take a look at Acrobat's Protected View as well.
