hello to all,

i have a pdf that i placed a custom stamp on. the stamp is dynamic that includes my id and the current date. i wanted to prevent anyone from changing or moving my stamp. after reading some of the topics i came across the function "flattenPages()". i tried it but my stamp is still selectable with the oject select tool. does anyone know how to flatten all objects on a pdf?

Thanks,
Daniel-

In Acrobat you can select any page object, flattened or otherwise. Unless you secure the file there's no way to change that.
