Just Launched: DRM Protection of PDF Files in Your Browser - For Free

We’re excited to announce a powerful new feature at PDFEReader.com: you can now create PDFe files directly from your browser — no downloads, no subscriptions, no fuss.

What’s a PDFe file? It’s our proprietary, DRM-protected format that gives you greater control over how your documents are accessed and used. Whether you’re sharing reports, course materials, or private documents, this feature helps you protect your content and set an expiry date so the file automatically becomes inaccessible after a certain period.

🔐 What You Can Now Do WITH PDFe FILES

  • Protect your PDFs with DRM instantly

  • Set expiry dates so files stop working after a chosen date

  • Prevent unauthorized sharing and copying

  • Prevent unauthorized printing of your documents

  • Set geographic access controls to your intellectual property

Why This Matters

Traditional PDFs offer limited control once shared. Anyone with the file can copy it, forward it, or store it forever. But with PDFe files, you stay in control. This is especially useful for:

  • Educators sharing time-limited course content

  • Businesses distributing sensitive documents

  • Freelancers or creators delivering paid work

  • Anyone who wants to secure their intellectual property
