You forgot cheap if not free. And come with a complete manual. Oh, and
unbreakable/un-lose-able disks with no product code so it can be installed
on any number of computers.

So the next version of Word will use Invisible Type g Solves all of the
problems with spelling mistakes, bad grammar, numbering etc. etc. No
bugs, it should be a winner.

What you are asking for is technically impossible. If you can see it you
can copy it. It's as simple as that.

Oh, I know that. It was sent in as a suggestion for future versions
of Word. Thanks for the response.

There is no way you can stop someone from copying, not even with
.pdf. If you don't want something copied, then you have to keep it
to yourself.

news I am an author who publishes on the internet using Word documents.
I would sure like to see a future version of Word have a feature
that locks a document from editing or copying. Folks can print all
they want, but I would
like to protect my work. The protection part is easy, but all
anyone (today)
has to do is to copy the work into a new document and changes are
then allowed. (PDF files are too large for this to be practical on
websites: my
works are complete books.) Surely, there must be a way to embed a
person's
work to just one level beyond a simple mouse-click. I would like
people to
read it, enjoy it, share it . . . but not change it.

Anyway, just my two-cents worth. Thanks for listening.
