Prevent download of pdf from web page
Find centralized, trusted content and collaborate around the technologies you use most. Connect and share knowledge within a single location that is structured and easy to search. I am trying to find a way to prevent a PDF from being printed or downloaded when view from web. Also, it is prefered that user cannot print screen.
Okay, prevent download of pdf from web page, I take back what I commented earlier. Just talked to one of the senior guys in my shop and he said it is possible to lock it down hard.
What this will do is that if they right click on the 'image' to save it, they will be saving the transparent image instead. And since the image 'overrides' the iFrame, any attempt to use print screen should be shielded by the image, and they should only be able to snapshot the image that doesn't actually exist. That leaves only one or two ways to get at the file which requires digging straight into the source code to find the image file inside the iFrame.
Still not totally secure, but protected from your average user. A print screen will allow someone to recreate the low res image you present, and in this case you could add a watermark to the image. That is not possible. Reading is downloading. When a user is reading a file, browser is downloading that file to temp.
Tick Both check boxes. After copy embed link and paste it to your src. No download and Save drive option is not allowed. Alternative: You can create annotations that are only visible when printing, prevent download of pdf from web page.
Creating a video with QuickTime's screen capture or anything similar kind of defeats all the effort to protect your document file from being copied.
if you want to provide a solution, well, there just isn't one. You would have to be able stop the user running a program that can access the buffers in the GPU to prevent them grabbing a screen shot.

This is a more serious issue than it is being given credit for from the sound of the replies. Everyone is automatically assuming that the content that needs protection is for public consumption. This is not always the case. Sometimes there are legal or contractual reasons that require the site owner to take all possible measures to prevent downloading the file.
The most obvious one I can think of has already brought up. This option comes up even in Reader no matter what other security selections you have chosen. In our case, Adobe Acrobat was purchased solely to provide some degree of protection for their own format, prevent download of pdf from web page. It is hard to believe that Adobe will let you prevent printing, prevent editing, prevent even opening without a password or you can really go all out and use a certificate for your encryption.
Yet they have no options to prevent saving at any point, anywhere. There are probably programs that are actually sold just to remove the DRM from Adobe documents and even if not, the point was that the client specified that no downloads be allowed even by users who had access to the private site.
Therefore the need to prevent the download to start with is not so hard to understand. While conversion to FLASH may give you the download protection, you lose all the rest. Unless I can find a way to prevent opening, saving etc for a Flash File. Next, is it possible to password protect a Flash file from opening when clicked on? I am not sure if I could post the code here or whether it is acceptable to paste links either but a Google search for "Maximus right click" will take you to it.
And it was one of several examples, it just happened to be the one I could implement the easiest and worked better than the others. Credit where credit is due. It seems to me that this is a place where there is an obvious need for a prevent download of pdf from web page packaged solution and usually "The Laws of Nature" take care of such an Imbalance in short order.
Yet my research has taken me through many years of posters all asking for the same thing. If I find it, and it works, I'm buying it. I wish I had skills as a programmer because I have some pretty good ideas of ways to implement such a product, unfortunately, I do not know how to put these ideas into practical use.

Although we should agree that ultimately you cannot prevent some form of document capture specially through screen capture technology either through phone or computerthe goal is prevent download of pdf from web page prevent direct download of original document.
Some suggest you turn it into images, but this is not necessary. There is clearly a way, as several cloud services allow you to share pdf files, removing the download option, without converting the PDF to images a superior method because it retains important properties like word search. Personally, as a user of Outlook email, I use the cloud service it provides, OneDrive.

pdf to flash is the best solution. You do know that anything you display to the user can be printed in some fashion or another If you serve it, they can find some way to use it. You can't stop a user from printing the screen. Prevent download of pdf from web page you have information you want to display and you don't want it being printed physically, PDF isn't exactly the format of choice.
It's whole purpose is to be lovingly printed. no such thing as a totally secure system and all that. In my business, the need for the PDF to not be downloaded is due to not wanting customers to be able to easily share downloaded materials with other people.
I make worksheets, and if they are easy to share, the customer is more likely to email them to a friend. If sharing them is made more complicated, they are less likely to want to go to the trouble. Not being able to download them without having advanced computer knowledge is good enough for me.
Hope this sheds light on a need in the industry. Things like being able to get a screen shot, etc. are not a worry in my case, prevent download of pdf from web page. Hope this helps. I i — Janet Giel-Romo. Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. Improve this answer. edited Nov 14 '16 at
