    protected PFD file - unable to print

    hey all...

    i downloaded a guide in pdf file format.the pdf is protected so i can't print it and use it properly.

    i understand why the creator would like to protect his creation from changes..but i don't want to change it, just print it ...but i can't.

    is there something i can do ?

    what about an automated screen capture & OCR that will be written to word ?


    OCR to word is already avilable with office 2003...

    now i have to find a good screen capture program..

    think you have missed the point here.

    The file is protected, even from printing. Vulcan what you should be doing is asking permission of the author.
