Default My ex-doctor wrote a book...

Anything that can be seen can be copied. With Acrobat you can create a PDF
that makes it harder.

....on Surgery in Ukrainian language. He is 84 years old and it took him
about 30 years to write it.The Book has 233 separate chapters, 200 - 600
pages in each chapter. For the last 4 years I have been helping him mainly
with computer's hardware issues and also how to back up the text on CD's.
The text is written mainly in Word 97 with some elements of Word Perfect,
and it "weighs" about 120 MB.
Since I will be traveling to Ukraine in May, he wants to know, but I don't
know the answer: is it possible to create a CD with his text on it, with a
"safety feature" so that a prospective publisher can READ, but not COPY
the text from this CD to his computer.
