Refining PDF Docs 3

Optimization eliminates multiple copies of graphic objects and removes all elements you deleted while editing, thus ensuring smaller files. It also prepares for page-at-a-time download.

To establish Security options, choose Standard security and click Settings. Pick whether you want to allow or prevent:

  • opening without password
  • printing the document
  • selecting text and graphics
  • annotating the document
  • changing the document

You will need to provide a password to protect these security options. Always keep a local copy without password, in case you forget it!
