Dec 19, 2020 at 18:55 | comment | added | mmmmmm | Yes but your solution I don't think deals with the user's case - @Woj has the better naysaying answer. I think we all agree that there is no technical way to allow protection and also access | |
Dec 19, 2020 at 18:52 | comment | added | bmike♦ | It also doesn’t help cross platform either @mmmmmm but their premise that PDF was in any way adequate needed a solid, “get real encryption” answer IMO. There are legitimate trade offs to secure an image. | |
Dec 19, 2020 at 18:38 | comment | added | mmmmmm | That does not help in this case as the OP wants the user to be able to print the document (perhaps see it) but not to be able to copy it. | |
