Steve - even with the security model you mention, why can't a user
select-all/copy/paste the contents of the protected pdf into word, and get
the contents that way? Does Adobe disallow the select/copy?

I got the impression it was a distributor price list ......
Once theyve been give file access and can right click on the file to just
download it to their local HD - security is out the window on the document.
Sems a waste of good dev time to create a "security" mechanism that doesnt
control doc access after the fact its been downloaded.
