Disable pdf download and save option

Question

I have a PDF file being viewed on the browser.

I want to disable Save, Download and print option of the PDF file.

Please help.

Solution 1

Try this:

<object width="100%" height="100%" type="application/pdf" 
data="yourpdffile.pdf#toolbar=0" id="pdf_content"><p>Document load was not 
successful.</p></object>

Make sure you add #toolbar=0 in the data attribute after your pdf file.

Solution 2

You can use iframe to your own version of PDF viewer.

Use pdfJS and when showing viewer.html just remove these buttons.

If user is viewing it on it's own tool, than you can't control it.

It only disables the download button, It doesn't disable save as option and print option on right-click.
