Control PDF Access: Enable or Disable Downloads

Control PDF Access: Enable or Disable Downloads

Download permission should follow document purpose, not habit.

  • Draft/confidential docs: download off
  • Final handoff/reference docs: download on
  • Always pair with expiry/open limits where relevant

Workflow

  1. Upload PDF.
  2. Set download mode.
  3. Add lifecycle controls.
  4. Share and monitor open logs.

Final takeaway

Download control is a key policy switch. Use it deliberately per scenario.
