Hi David, I have done this tutorial but when I tried sending it to an email, it opened as google docs. I think the pdf will only be locked if it's on Microsoft edge? correct me if I'm wrong, please. As I really wanted to protect my ebook. thank you

Hi David, nice informative video.. thanks & congrats...👍
Please let me know if I upload this Libre pdf file to some 'pdf to word' conversion website (as there are many), then will it get converted to word?
Because if that happens, then the changes can be done in the word file, and it can again be converted to PDF... Please guide...🙏

I just need more thing to learn from your knowledge.

If the above method is possible then kindly show it too, I'll be glad learn it 😊

informative👍

[@David_Mbugua]

Thanks 🙂

[@plutoguerra]

thank you! great explanation

[@williamwallace9826]

It does not appear that this prevents someone from making and distributing duplicate copies of a PDF file. This only prevents copying portions of text when the file is open for viewing.

[@tilacompany7979]

Thank you it is valuable.

[@David_Mbugua]

You're welcome.

[@KrishnaKumarChaudhary-p4m]

thanks worked perfectly

[@dochinna7082]

Are there anyway other people can reverse that and make it editable again?

[@NitiNiti-f1d]

Can we do in mobile?

[@lodukmoses1352]

What about if I wanted to print a protected one..

[@jidmotoventure1890]

You can print it using a PDF viewer in Firefox or any other online PDF viewer. (any fixed regarding in this issue?
)

[@gouravjungari9]

[@thevocaldoctorstephanieder2136]

i tried to use the software, but it says my pdf file is currupt, it is a mobi file and epub file for my ebook, but it does work for my printable book format. i need it to sell my ebooks personally and not on amazon. Need help thanks

[@Seritta123]

THANK YOU, SO MUCH.

[@mariemock8677]

Great video but when I downloaded Libre it crashed my laptop and took 5 hours to sort it out! Stupidly tried to uninstall and reinstall and did the same again. Not doing that again 😞

[@ela5624]

Is Libre Office FREE to use download?

[@David_Mbugua]

Yes, it is.

[@dataworld-information]

Could you pls tell something that works for chrome Safari or any other

[@Solescape1]

Bang! Thanks!

[@David_Mbugua]

You're welcome.

[@alfehere]

why Am I still able to copy the content through acrobat reader through phone

[@caribbeanguytrinbago9662]

How can we give it an expiry date to file?

[@callystaboyle1339]

Hi, i would like to ask, I have tried this method but then I cannot send the file to my team members, is there any way for me to be able to send it to my teammates? thank you

[@duobrother913]

Bro wt about screenshot restricteion

[@maimounchokri1135]

sorry but you might loose the formatting of your file with this method (when using a special font or in some utf-8 codig)

[@JessC-km7xp]

Hello. I tried this software but when I open a PDF file the pages turned to black. How can I fix this? Appreciate your help. Thanks!

[@telllurium]

it works but only on pc. on phones it can be easily copied in Drive PDF

[@LucyMbugua-pb3bx]

That's for this but why is mine asking for password?

[@FrancisCyberSec]

I did all you said and then took a pdf file , encrypted it and try to write protect . After converting the pdf into word file . The document was edited even after write protect it 😢

[@planetaryPoem9]

This is good but all my links are lost then (on the exported file). Is there a solution for this?

[@razvanbordei6802]

Turns out that nothing can really protect a PDF. I created a secured PDF in both Acrobat DC and Libre Office, but I was able to open/save them from PDF24 as fresh PDFs, with no restrictions.

[@Kenkittie]

This is a bummer. I’.m looking to start selling digital products and I dont want them to be tossed around for free. Is there any workaround this?

[@razvanbordei6802]

The way I do it is to export the PDF as image then make a new PDF from that image and secure it. This way if the password is hacked at least the text, images or CAD info will not be in the PDF anymore.

[@SygisArmaan]

Perfect and simple! Love it when people use free software!

[@David_Mbugua]

Thanks!
