I hope someone can help me with this.

I want to know if there is a way to disable copying and pasting information out of Adobe Acrobat version 6 without having to assign a password?

Please help if someone knows this.

Thanks in advance.

The only way to disallow copying/pasting of information from within a PDF is to set the password security. You can also create a Policy to set this type of security in a PDF (which can be reused for multiple documents); however, Policies still utilize a password.
