You are wasting your time. If they are determined enough, they could just
re-type it.

Any document that you allow someone to see can easily be reproduced. If OCR
software doesn't handle the original file - and it will, it will certainly
do so if the document is printed and scanned. If you inhibit printing, a
scrolling screen capture tool such as SnagIt will capture the document from
the screen. The *only* way to stop someone from reproducing your document is
not to give them access to it.

Hi,

Depending on the software you're using to create the PDF, you can set its security to prevent copying and/or printing of the PDF.
Word has no control over this.

I`m using that protection but despite that you can convert PDF to word
with, for example, PDF2Word and then you can copy, edit and print that
text..
