Default How can I prevent a page from printing in Word?

I have a series of documents that can be viewed and printed by the general
user group at work. I have another page that contains confidential
information that I want to add to the end of each document. It is OK for the
user group to VIEW that page, but I don't want them to PRINT it.

I know that they can copy and paste, but the idea is that if a copy of the
document is printed out by someone to be sent to a vendor or third party,
that this confidential page won't print out or can't be attached to an email.


Is this possible in Word?

Not really. You can make it hidden text and set things to view hidden text
but not print it. Works fine so long as no one changes the settings.
