I need to stop people from printing a sensitive PDF I am distributing.

Solved by PDF Permissions

The Problem

This feature helps you distribute a sensitive PDF while preventing recipients from printing it. It reduces the risk of uncontrolled paper copies and supports safer sharing of confidential content.

The Solution

This feature is designed for situations where you need to share a sensitive PDF but must prevent recipients from producing printed copies. It focuses on controlling print behavior so confidential information is less likely to be duplicated or circulated outside approved channels. You can apply print restrictions to the PDF before distribution, ensuring that recipients are not able to use standard print options. This is useful for internal documents, legal materials, client reports, pricing sheets, or any content that should remain digital-only. By limiting printing, you help protect sensitive data from being left unattended, physically copied, or redistributed. The feature supports secure sharing workflows where you still need people to view the document but not reproduce it in hard copy. It can be used when sending PDFs by email, sharing via a link, or publishing through a controlled distribution process. This reduces operational risk and supports compliance with confidentiality policies. Overall, it provides an extra layer of control for document distribution without changing the content of the PDF itself.
