We did exactly this and it worked just fine.  We then uploaded it to D2L into the content module and the security settings did not work.  We were able to edit and print the document.  Is it possible to fix the document so that this will not happen in D2L?

This help note is great! I was able to enforce print protecting on my PDF document in no time and the available video is a great complement too. THANK YOU!
