What are people saying about PDF Anti-Copy

Flyfisher Hello
Your product sounds interesting.
I have tried a few over the years. Alas, they could all be cracked by readily available PDF Password Removers.

I am keen to try your offering.

Alas MalwareBytes says the download file and your website are malware.
It's just a suggestion but why don't you encase the download within a ZIP?

If you would like to send me an alternative download and web address I am interested in pursuing what you have available.

Thanks for your help. I appreciate it.

Kind regards
Alex

So strange.. It must be a false positive.
We used virusTotal scanned and it reported 100% clean:

Jon Spain Having just bought it, MalwareBytes refused to allow me access to the site, even though I added it to the safe list. Trying Chrome instead of Firefox removed the problem, which was a good result. However, I can't understand why MWB is tiggered by one browser and not by another.

Thanks for the info. I assume that is a false positive, we have already submitted it to MalwareBytes and it might take a few days to process.

Payne N Diaz So, this prevents content copy correct?

This does not prevent a file copy. Correct?

this will not prevent screen capture to png and OCR. Correct

Jon Spain I guess it won't provent screen capture + OCR but the quality may well be lower?

Yes, it cannot prevent file sharing. You can check this one: https://pdfunshare.com

HJ B Use of the word "Anti-copy" in the name of this product is somewhat misleading.

1. It does not prevent making a copy of the entire document.
2. It does restrict the ability to use the copy/paste functions, i.e., capturing a portion of the pdf.
3. It does restrict conversion of the document from pdf to text or to MS Word.
4. However,
A Segment (or all) of the pdf can be captured by highlighting and using Win-Shift S. The result is a photo (graphic) of the highlighted material that can be pasted into another document or printed.
B. If the entire document is printed and then scanned, the result can then be converted to an unprotected pdf using Acrobat or other conversion tools.

As far as I can tell, this program does not add any protective functionality that is not already in Adobe Acrobat and some other pdf programs. If you do not have any such other program, then this program gives an inexpensive but limited way to semi-protect a pdf.

There seems to be a potential disadvantage is this program is used to protect a document. Other programs use a password system to permit you to later unprotect a pdf. This program does not use a owner controlled password system. Therefore, if you make a protected document you would be wise to make sure you save the original version, so as to permit you to make modifications in the future,
