Default Can you make a MS Word document unprintable?

Just wondering if you can make a MS Word document unprintable. If it is
possible, how would I go about doing so?

If you convert it to a PDF, you can protect it from printing.

Thank you for the response! I was wondering if I could make it unprintable
without having to convert it to a PDF. Is there anything in MS Word that
will allow you to do this?

Many have tried, but I have not seen a method that could not be circumvented
in about 30 seconds by anybody with sufficient knowledge & determination.
