Default How can I stop people from copying text from a document with 2

Thank you, Yves. That is very helpful, and a clear explanation.

I would think not. The possibility to copy text is normally related to
both the application rather and the settings of the document. There
very well might be a way to tell Word 2007 to not copy text from a
document, but another document reader might totally ignore this option
and allow copying. (A similar discussion is often made about the
possibility to print protected pdf files through alternative pdf
readers)
