Hi,
 
Can I disable the "Preferences" in adobe reader 7.0.9. I'm only using javascript to hide the preferences. But I'm afraid that user can key-in "Ctrl-k" to activate this menu.
 
thx

In the File, Properties, select the Security tab.
Select Password Security, in the section titled Changes Allowed

Select Filling in form fields and signing.
