Prevent PDF Forwarding

MaiPDF helps you ensure your shared PDFs remain secure and protected from unauthorized forwarding

Why Prevent PDF Forwarding?

PDFs are commonly used for sharing important documents, but once shared, recipients might forward them to others, potentially compromising sensitive information. MaiPDF provides multiple methods to prevent unauthorized PDF forwarding and protect your content.

How MaiPDF Prevents PDF Forwarding

MaiPDF offers several powerful features to prevent PDF forwarding and unauthorized sharing:

Share Link Expiration

With MaiPDF, you can set expiration dates for your PDF share links. This ensures that files become inaccessible after a specified period, preventing unauthorized access. Learn more about setting PDF expiration dates.

File Expiration

Set specific expiration times for your PDFs. Once expired, any attempts to access the file will be denied, effectively preventing permanent storage or forwarding to others.

Password Protection

In addition to expiration dates, MaiPDF allows you to add password protection to your files. Only recipients with the correct password can access the content, adding an extra layer of security. Discover more about PDF access control.

Dynamic Watermark

To track document distribution, MaiPDF adds dynamic watermarks to your PDFs. Each time the file is viewed, the watermark embeds viewer information like IP address and browser details, helping trace the source of any unauthorized sharing. Explore the dynamic watermark feature in detail.

Prevent Download and Forwarding

To ensure files can't be downloaded or forwarded, MaiPDF can restrict these functions. Files can only be viewed online, preventing the creation of local copies. Learn more about preventing downloads.
