CopySafe PDF Converter

The CopySafe PDF Converter is a licensed program that imports existing PDF files, encrypts them into library files that can be opened with the free CopySafe PDF Reader.

Images and text cannot be copied

It is impossible to copy the images and text used in a CopySafe PDF protected document, even by using PrintScreen or screen capture software.

Optional Password Protection

A password can be set at the time encryption to prevent unauthorized distribution. Without the correct password the document cannot be opened.

Optional Print Control

Printing can be disabled at the time of conversion, or you can leave it enabled to allow printing.

Creating CopySafe PDF documents

The CopySafe PDF Converter can create a standalone Viewer/PDF executable or create a library to be read in the CopySafe PDF Reader.

Viewing a CopySafe PDF document

To view a CopySafe PDF executable all you need to do is double click the file. It includes its own viewer and does not require anything more than Windows. To view PDF libraries (.enc) you can use the CopySafe PDF Reader which is a free public download. CopySafe PDF documents can be scrolled from page to page, zoomed in and out, and rotated in either direction.

Installing the Reader

Simply copying the viewer executable to a new computer will not work. The original installer as provided in the free download must be used for it to function properly.

CopySafe PDF is very simple to use and can be used by anyone with little to no skill at all. To protect a PDF document all you need to do is:

1. Open the CopySafe PDF Converter
2. Select the PDF file to protect
3. Select the library/standalone option
4. Set expiration date or password (if required)
5. Click the “Create” button
