Don't think that making a CD copy protected will work. Generally this protects the complete CD from being copied, not the individual files. It works through one of the executables that is on the CD. Since a .pdf is not an executable and is opened using the executable (Acrobat Reader) from the user I don't think that making the CD copy protected and the file readable will work. > Can this be done? Any solution is a consideration. User makes screenshot, runs screenshot through OCR and has the text back. It can't be done. You can keep honest people honest, but that is it.
