It takes less than a few seconds to implement all the restrictions selected from the list. Simpdf has powerful servers that can impose restrictions on the given PDF irrespective of a slow internet connection. The process is automatic and the users just have to select the security restrictions and click “Change”.
If a user wants their PDF not to be printed for use in a hard copy, then it’s possible to impose such a restriction using Simpdf. There’s a dedicated security property “Prevent Printing” along with “Prevent Printing Different Formats” that allows for achieving the desired result.
The content in the PDF will remain intact and preserved while imposing security properties in it using Simpdf. Simpdf imposes all the selected securities to the PDF in the back end without affecting the front end. A general user will never know that the PDF might have several securities imposed.
Certain PDFs can have forms in them and the users may not want other readers to fill those forms such as in the case of a job application, surveys, feedback, etc. This allows users to impose a validation check on the PDFs, discouraging unwanted users from filling out the forms.
It’s very easy to steal information from PDFs by copying the content. However, Simpdf empowers its users to disable users from extracting PDF content. One can use the “Prevent Content Extraction” and “Prevent Extraction for Accessibility” properties that Simpdf offers to ensure that the PDF content stays uncopyable.

Simpdf’s user interface is designed to render and function perfectly on mobile devices, tablets, PCs, and any operating system, including in incognito mode. It works flawlessly on all web browsers including Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera, etc.
