PDF Password-X (PDF-PX) offers a unique form of copy protection for PDF files, enabling you to restrict end-users to opening and viewing PDF files only on computers you specifically authorize. PDF-PX automatically unlocks and opens PDF files for viewing with Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat without disclosing the password to end-users. PDF-PX cannot be copied to unauthorized computers (copying renders it inoperable). PDF-PX is so unique it is Patent Pending. No internet connection is required. PDF-PX is the perfect digital rights management solution.
Don't Give Out The Password - Give Out PD-PX Instead.
Note: Please review the Platform and Product Requirements and the Limitations of the Evaluation version before downloading or purchasing this product. After purchasing PDF Password-X, Acrobotics will provide the full licensed version directly from their office.
Feature Summary
- You (the licensee) control what machines PDF-PX can be installed on - which guarantees that your password protected PDF files are only viewed on machines you specifically authorized. No limitation on the number of installations you can authorize (there is no limit to the number of copies of PDF-PX that you can re-distribute to end-users for installation).
- Royalty free.
- PDF-PX (once installed) "locks" itself onto the computer it is installed on. The PDF-PX program file (after installation) is inoperable if copied to another machine.
- PDF-PX allows password protected files to be opened and viewed
without disclosure of the password used to open the file. PDF-PX
functions as a secure and automatic unlocking device.(PDF files which are password protected with the special password provided with PDF-PX cannot be opened without PDF-PX).
- The PDF-PX license allows the licensee to authorize an unlimited number of end-user installations (no royalty or extra charge regardless of the
number of copies installed).
- PDF-PX does not hide files on the end-users computer and makes no changes to the registry. Installation requires interaction between you (the licensee) and your end-users (see PDF Password-XRi User Guide for details).
- PDF-PX Works with Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat (no proprietary viewer used or required).
- PDF-PX provides an ultra complex password to secure PDF documents. There is no requirement for the end-user to manually enter the complex password each time a document is viewed (PDF-PX does that automatically when the password input window appears). End-users never see nor learn the password used to open PDF files which eliminates the "human" element in security. PDF-PX securely and automatically unlocks the protected file for viewing (the owner or permissions password you assign to the PDF file provides additional restrictions to prevent unauthorized printing, alteration and text extraction).
- PDF-PX is the perfect security solution for e-books, publications in PDF format, law enforcement records, government agencies, court files, evidence files, confidential documents, medical records, financial data.
Major Features in Depth
Secure Viewing. PDF-PX locks itself onto each computer you authorize installation on. If the program file is copied to another machine it becomes inoperable. The licensee maintains exclusive control over what machines PDF-PX can be used on through a simple and fast installation process. Installation uses a "Authorization Code Generator" which only the licensee holds and controls.
Passwords Remain Secure. PDF-PX acts as an unlocking device to automatically open PDF files. The person using PDF-PX to view files never learns the password used by PDF-PX to open password protected PDF files (only the licensee of PDF-PX knows the password; Acrobotics does not maintain records of the unique complex password hard-coded into each licensed copy of PDF-PX). Every full licensed copy of PDF-PX has a different complex password hard-coded into the program. Other licensees cannot use their copy to access your PDF files.
Complex Password Supported. Each licensed copy of PDF-PX comes with a unique highly complex hack/crack-resistant confidential password (known only to the licensee). PDF documents are rendered super-secure without the need for an operator to manually enter the complex password each time a document is opened.
Prevents Unauthorized Copying. If PDF-PX is copied the copy is useless on any other computer. PDF-PX only works on machines the licensee authorized it on (the authorization code issued by the licensee only works for a single one-time installation - a separate authorization code must be generated by the licensee and sent to the end-user for each separate installation). If PDF files copied the copies retain their password protection and cannot be opened or viewed without access to a working copy of PDF-PX (which wont work on any unauthorized machine).
Expansive License. The license agreement for PDF-PX permits you to install and use PDF-PX on as many (or as few) computers as you desire. You can freely remove and re-install PDF-PX on multiple machines (the license permits simultaneous use on multiple machines).
No Hidden Files. Removing PDF-PX from a machine is even easier and faster than the installation process. PDF-PX does not hide files and will make no change to the registry.
No Proprietary Viewer. PDF-PX works with either Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat. No proprietary viewer is needed or required.
Automated Password Assignment. PDF-PX itself will not assign a password to your PDF files, however the included instruction guide shows you how to easily and quickly assign a password to all of your PDF files as a fully automated process using your full licensed version of Adobe Acrobat.
