Document protection
You can protect your documents from being read or saved by unauthorized persons
by applying document protection – or, to be more precise, read and/or write protection
– to them. For example, you can require the entry of a password to open or
save a protected document.
To protect the current document, invoke the command File > Properties, switch to
the Protection property sheet and select the kind of protection you want. Then
enter whatever password you like for reading and/or writing.
The following types of protection are available:
No protection
The document is not protected. This is the default setting.
Write protection
The document can be saved only when the correct write password has been
entered at the time the document was opened.
Read protection
The document can be opened only when the correct read password is entered at
the time an attempt is made to open it. Furthermore, the document will be automatically
encrypted.
Protection depending on password
Here the protection depends on whether the read or the write password is
entered at the time the document is opened:
If the user enters the read password, he is permitted to open the document but
not to save it. If he enters the write password, he has complete access. If he enters
a false password, or nothing at all, access is completely denied.
Detailed information about enabling and disabling document protection is given on
the following pages.
