• Guaranteed full text PDF document search

  Hello

  We save PDFs in SQL Server using 2012 FileTables. We have implemented the Full Text Search on the server. We tried with Adobe iFilter 9 and Adobe iFilter 11. Tried it on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2012 (both x 64 machines). We are not able to search for text in a secure PDF document. It does not analyze/index of such documents. How can achieve us? What is a security feature of configuration? Are there alternatives?

  Hi nida007,

  This is a security feature of design, you will not be able to find text in a PDF file without having to open the PDF file by using the password.

  Kind regards

• Mozilla Firefox Acrobat Reader Plugin ignores the security setting of the PDF document.

  Mozilla Firefox Acrobat Reader Plugin ignores the security setting of the PDF document.

  When, for example, the document is protected against printing (confirmed in Acrobat Reader DC 2015.007 20033) it is possible to print from Mozilla Firefox.

  Environment:

  Windows 7, Firefox 38.0, plugin for Adobe Acrobat Reader 15.7.20033.2203

  Are you sure that you are using the Adobe Reader plugin and not Firefox "own PDF Viewer?  See http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-browser-plugin-configuration.html

• Unable to print through 'Adobe PDF' from a 'Secure' PDF

  Hi guys,.

  First, let's define the password for the PDF file with the setting below:

  

  Then, the documents will go to the junior to proceed, when they try to print documents through Adobe PDF for some pages, impossible to do with the error below:

  

  Possible advice any solution for this?

  (1) confirming the previous answer than if you print to Adobe PDF, PostScript printer driver instance, in fact it will fail. It is built-in to Acrobat Distiller functionality to prevent the free removal of security on a PDF file.

  (2) there are very good reasons for securing financial documents. In simple terms, a nonsecure reception or a financial document can be too easily changed for criminal purposes. For example, a non-profit, I worked with that was scammed on a bit of funds by a staff member who changed bills of credit card incoming mask of embezzling funds in PDF format. This protection has its drawbacks, but at least you don't need to worry about the integrity of the content.

• prohibition to copy the part or parts of the PDF document

  Can I disable (via scripts) a copy of a particular area of a PDF document? For example, a person copy the selected text in the document (Ctrl + c or via context menu), but in the memory buffer in fact will be added only allowed to copy text (for example, a paragraph is prohibited and the other allowed).

  No, it is not possible. You can apply a security policy that prevents the copy of the entire file, but not part of it.

• Acrobat DC combine Office 2016 files into a PDF document or a portolio

  I use Acrobat DC Pro on my new Windows 7 PC with Word 2016. This combination of programs is not allowing me to combine Word/Excel files in a PDF document or a portfolio using the add-on Acrobat tools "to create a PDF file from any format. I get a message "Error during treatment", and he ignores the Office files. After that, Acrobat thinks that the Word/Excel file is used in another application. There the Distiller settings that I need to change or something else that needs to be done?

  UPDATE. After reading several other similar problems with other versions of Acrobat or office, I fixed the MS Office 2016 installation via Windows Control Panel and that seems to have solved the problem. He has worked with and without control 'enable enhanced security '.
