Making Secure PDF files

[Jonny87]

Is there a way to make a PDF file secure that has been created in Inkscape and/or LibreOffice??

I want to be able to make them copy protected to stop any form of copying. I know there are often ways around it but I want to be able to at least have some copyright protection from the the Average user that won't be able to work out or think about a way around it.

Using Ubuntu 12.04 by the way...

Not a chance.

how are you offering your PDFs? by mail?

otherwise you could add watermark to them.

but anyway when you click "export to PDF" in Libre office there is a tab called security. click it and set password there. you can then also set levels of restriction etc.

i would think a similar procedure is done in inkscape
