  • Hello. ??

    Unfortunately, this can’t be done with the way the internet exists right now. If people can see it, they can download it.

    It’s possible to use Javascript to disable right clicking and selecting, but then people can disable Javascript to work around that.

    If you’re concerned about people stealing it and republishing it, you could put a watermark over top of the documents, like artists and photographers use. It doesn’t prevent them from downloading it, but it does mark it as yours.

    Best wishes.
