How do I lock pictures to keep them from being copied? Derf 27.07.2006 20:42:01 I am trying to send a document to a client, using images that I want him to be able to see, but not access or copy to his own desktop. Is there a way to lock these images / pictures so that he does not have access to copy them? I am using Office 2003

RE: How do I lock pictures to keep them from being copied? Derf 27.07.2006 21:41:02 Is there no way to lock it down in the header or footer? Would that work? I'd rather not put anything in front of it.

Re: How do I lock pictures to keep them from being copied? "Jezebel" <warcrimes[ at ]whitehouse.gov> 27.07.2006 23:09:38 No, there is no way to do it. Anything that the user can display can be copied, saved, edited, and pirated, etc. You can inhibit an unsophisticated user by converting the document to PDF and locking the document for selection. But this also is easily defeated by anyone keen to do so. Put a copyright notice in the document.
