Not text in the form, per se, as text elsewhere in the document. There are
addresses and other instructions that users may want to copy and paste for
usage.

To clarify, it's an instructional document, and the last page is a fill-in
form. I'd like users to be able to fill in the form for their own use and
printing, but not to change text in the rest of the document - while
retaining the ability to copy and paste addresses and instructions.

"Read-only" and "Filling in forms" are mutually exclusive options as you
protect a Word document, so I doubt this can be done.

Why do you want users to copy text in the form?

I know you can have one section that is a protected form, and the rest of the
document is unprotected. Is there any way to have one section a protected
form and the rest of the document read-only?

I would protect the entire document as fill-in form, but I want users to be
able to select the non-form section - just not edit it.
