Unable to insert page

Post by scoter1502 »

Hello,

sorry for my English. Is with Google.

Insert a page for locked PDF documents is greyed out. How can I still add a page?

Normally the author of the PDF has protected his document for a reason.

The best solution is to contact the author and ask if a non-protected version of the PDF can be obtained.

If not, and printing the document is allowed, you can print the PDF to a new (unprotected) document.
You can than insert additional pages.
This solution is not ideal, but can be an alternative.
