Publisher protection from editing

[Kip Kolson]

I have created a newsletter in Publisher that I want to email to clients.
How do I protect it so that others cannot make changes to it?

I have created a newsletter in Publisher that I want to
email to clients. How do I protect it so that others
cannot make changes to it?

==============================
Since most clients probably won't have
Publisher and cannot open your .pub file...
try creating a .pdf file:

Try this...

Download and install the following free PDF Creator.

PrimoPDF
http://www.primopdf.com/

With your new program installed...open your project
in Publisher and go to...File / Print.

On your Print screen...open the drop window and
select PrimoPDF as your printer.

Click...OK...now you will see the PrimoPDF screen
and you can browse to a save folder.

When you click...OK..your .pdf file will be created
in your save folder.

The resulting .pdf file can be viewed on any computer
that has the free Adobe Reader installed.
